The history of Black artists in country music | Rissi Palmer: Still Here | American Masters | PBS

Official website: http://www.pbs.org/americanmasters | #AmericanMastersPBS Black musicians have always had a place in the history of country music, despite the music industry's push to label white folk music as hillbilly music, and Black folk music as "race records." "Black people that have succeeded in this industry succeeded in spite of that," said Andrea Williams, author and journalist. “American Masters: In the Making” profiles two performers breaking down barriers in music. Follow opera singer J’Nai Bridges as she prepares for “A Knee on the Neck,” a choral tribute to George Floyd. Country artist Rissi Palmer redefines success as she works on her latest album, while uplifting other artists of color in the Americana genres. Tony Award–winning actress and singer Audra McDonald hosts the broadcast premiere of American Masters: In the Making, which premieres on Friday, March 24 at 9 p.m. ET (check local listings) on PBS, pbs.org/americanmasters and the PBS App. Subscribe to the American Masters channel for more clips: http://bit.ly/1JmUCu5 Enjoy full episodes of your favorite American Masters films: http://www.pbs.org/americanmasters FOLLOW AMERICAN MASTERS: Facebook:   / americanmasters   Twitter:   / pbsamermasters   #AmericanMastersPBS Instagram:   / pbsamericanmasters   #AmericanMastersPBS TikTok:   / pbsamericanmasters   FOLLOW PBS: Facebook:   / pbs   Twitter:   / pbs   Instagram:   / pbs   Shop: http://www.shop.pbs.org/ ___________________________________ Now in its 37th season on PBS, American Masters was recently nominated for an IDA Award and a Critics Choice Documentary Award.
