Producer Picks: 'John Schaefer On Protest Music'

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Aug 26, 2021

[REBROADCAST FROM June 5, 2020] Last summer, amid historic racial justice protests and the first citywide curfew since World War II, Alison hosted an evening special as part of our "WNYC At Curfew" coverage. John Schaefer joined to discuss protest music and how it has been used in social movements across our history, and even also brought a list of his favorite tracks to play.

This segment was picked by our Producer Zach Gottehrer-Cohen.
