In 1933, while America was deep in segregation, Florence Price became the first Black woman to have music performed by a major American orchestra -- and most people have never heard her name. In this episode of I Didn't Know Maybe You Didn't Either, our host, B Daht, explores how her groundbreaking symphony stood beside other major Black achievements happening during the same era, proving Black excellence wasn't surviving in America... it was creating history in it.
