Muse 2 the Pharaoh : Unpacking Race in the Legacy of PrinceUpdate: 2019-02-20
Description
There’s a common trope that Prince “transcended race” which is a tricky concept, mostly due to the fact that “race” is not something that can be overcome. Today Darling Nisi and guest Erica Thompson focus on the context of Prince as a Black man in America and how that may have influenced his decisions as an artist as he moved in his career.
