Today we're sharing an episode from another Big Questions Project podcast: Mother Is A Question.
"This episode is called "Mother Is A Song," and we’re traveling to a place and time when mama was the muse–back when musicians in the U.S. were constantly singing about “the one who’s always true,” as one of these songs goes. One hundred years ago in the U.S., in the early days of recorded music, a lot of the songs people were listening to were about one particular person: mother.
Thanks to Sarah Bryan, the Association for Cultural Equity, and to Dust to Digital for inspiring this episode.
Mother is a Question is created by Natasha Haverty and Julia Metzger-Traber
