Booker, Meeks, Kamlager-Dove Introduce Resolution Honoring African American Musical Heritage
Press Release
Issues: Education
"From jazz and blues to R&B and hip-hop, African American music continues to shape the fabric of our nation's culture and society," said Senator Booker. "Despite the outsized influence it has in the United States, African American music education is largely absent in our school curriculums. This resolution will not only recognize the immense contributions Black musicians have made to our nation, but will also expand access to music education so our children can appreciate and build upon our nation's rich history of music."
