For a generation, Haiti has been the image of liberation and freedom for countless Black people across the western world. Haitian violinist, administrator, and music educator Victoria Joseph joins Garrett to showcase the work she's doing on the island and to unpack the opportunities, potential empowerment, and responsibilities connected with teaching the next generation of musicians. Scott shines a light on an upcoming hip hop documentary, Garrett reviews a new album by Joy Guidry, and the guys discuss Black History Month blunders.
