Join us as The Met hosts the digital premiere of Black Rock Coalition: History of Our Future.
Last fall, The Met presented an explosive and joyful celebration of rock's Black roots. The Black Rock Coalition and special guests created a sonic timeline honoring the Black pioneers who ushered rock and roll into the American collective consciousness.
Founded in 1985 by guitarist Vernon Reid, journalist Greg Tate, and producer Konda Mason, the Black Rock Coalition is a collective assembled to provide maximum exposure for Black artists who defy convention and is dedicated to the complete creative freedom of Black alternative music.
View this wonderful performance by rock's original trailblazers and innovators.

Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Play It Loud: Instruments of Rock and Roll.
