If you didn't know why June was declared Black Music Month, this is a great clip to watch. Undoubtedly, music created by Black artists and musicians is influenced by our African ancestors. The many gifts they brought to the Americas from the motherland of Africa are the blueprint of today's mainstream musical culture.

We acknowledge this and hope people learn about the incredible American history and the impact of Black artistry.

Remember to RSVP for Fifth Third Bank x GLOBALMIXX's Black Music Month celebration on Wednesday, June 26, from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
