This week we have two stories about incredible Black trailblazers. First up, a story about a Black designer and a group of Black models that revolutionized the fashion world forever. Then, a story about a Black, queer icon that you may not have heard of, but will never forget. To commemorate our 1 year anniversary, we’ll be playing the hits, as determined by you, all month. The people voted, and here we have it— The Best of The Nod: Black Excellence, featuring "Chitlins at Bergdorfs" and "The Cowboy of West Village."



Music in this episode from: Dr Crosby, Little Richard, Philip Peterson, The Five Du-Tones, The Morrie Morrison Orchestra, Haley Shaw, and Bobby Lord.
