In a wide-ranging panel discussion, museum professionals Dr. Dwandalyn R. Reece and Timothy Ann Burnside explore the profound impact of Meshell Ndegeocello, a DC native whose influence on funk, rock, and soul has helped shape the course of Black music for the past 30 years. Here, we discuss Meshell’s career with a focus on her recent work, both her tribute album to Sun Ra and her homage to James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time.
