"This playlist is a guided meditation from keepers of the tradition [...] with horns and machines and keys and voice [...] It is a people’s songbook, a soundtrack to the improvisational life and living of Blackness under the control of white supremacy. is is an effort to pull forward and give a name to what our bodies tell us with every needle drop, to hold tight that which combines individual voice and people’s rebellion, to play together in the porous forcefield that incubates new knowledge and launches our freedom dreams. Our hope is to relay the diaspora meters that shake and raise the earth to move the feet of millions and expose its historical spine from the drum to the drum machine" (Redmond & Phillips, 2017, in Futures of Black Radicalism, p. 206-207).
