In Review: Guest DJ Hour with Kim Ruehl, MLK Day

In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday, No Depression Editor-in-Chief, Kim Ruehl joined us in the guest DJ seat for a special hour of music from the Civil Rights Era and beyond. You’ll hear songs that were the soundtrack to Martin Luther King’s Civil Rights marches from Joan Baez, Mavis Staples and Odetta. Also included in this hour are examples of modern artists creating music inspired by King’s message like Rhiannon Giddens, The Roots and Common.
