Connecting the black music tradition with the black activist
tradition, Party Music brings both into greater focus than ever
before and reveals just how strongly the black power movement was
felt on the streets of black America. Interviews reveal the
never-before-heard story of the Black Panthers’ R&B band the
Lumpen and how five rank-and-file members performed popular music
for revolutionaries. Beyond the mainstream civil rights
movement that is typically discussed are the stories of the Black
Panthers, the Black Arts Movement, the antiwar activism, and other
radical movements that were central to the impulse that transformed
black popular music—and created soul music.
