currentmusicology-5222	Carson, Charles	“Melanin in the Music”: Black Music History in Sound and Image	2012	19	.pdf	application/pdf	7723	384	58	The impetus behind this project concerns the ways in which important voices in Black music history (and in this article, the United States specifically) have been ignored, overlooked, written out, or silenced in favor of what seem to be more or less widely accepted teleological narratives. But the point is not that the Carolina Chocolate Drops’ version can sound like contemporary R&B. Rather, in this track, the Carolina Chocolate Drops recover some of the possibilities of Black musical expression perhaps lost by the exclusion of roots music from the narrative of Black music history.	cache/currentmusicology-5222.pdf	txt/currentmusicology-5222.txt
