A historical framework is present which includes multimedia images and historical accounts with live musical performances that move through slavery, the Popular Front in New York during the 1940’s, the Civil Rights Movements and the proliferation of the Black Power movement in the 1970’s.

She has served as a choir director, instrumentalist, and consultant in the field of gospel performance for over 30 years. Dr. Kernodle is a Professor of Musicology at Miami University where she teaches in the areas of American music, African American music and gender studies in music.
