We are concluding Women Herstory with A Black Herstory Moment interviewing Dr. Dina Bennett, Curatorial Director for the National Museum of African American Music (NMAAM). Scheduled to open in Downtown Nashville Labor Day 2020, the National Museum of African American Music will be a 56,000-square-foot facility that will encourage visitors to discover the central role African Americans have played in shaping and creating all genres of American music. More info at https://nmaam.org "In the swift whirl of time, music is a constant, reminding us of what we were and of that toward which we aspired. Art thou troubled? Music will not only calm, it will ennoble thee." - Ralph Ellison: Living with Music.  This was a poignant quote Dr. Bennett offered in her interview. Books suggested were: "Warmth of Other Suns" by Isabel Wilkerson "Barracoon" by Zora Neale Hurston
