🎉 Happy Juneteenth from WUSC!

On June 19th, 1865, the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas received the news that they were free following President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation.

The Emancipation Proclamation was issued in 1863 and declared a formal end to slavery in the United States. However, the implementation was not immediate, and it took over two full years for all enslaved people to receive notification of their freedom.

On this day, WUSC celebrates a milestone on the road to equity for all in our country while acknowledging the effort that we must put in to continuously improve the society we live in today.

If you’re in Columbia, some events that you can attend today include Juneteenth at the Columbia Museum of Art, Juneteenth on the River, and Juneteenth in the Park.

📻🎙️ IT’S WUSC WEDNESDAY!! 💿🎶

This week, we’re spotlighting one of our longest-running shows on WUSC, which started in the Spring of 2010! The Backbeat Show, hosted by Rick Wrigley, is a specialty show on WUSC focused on playing Oldies music.

“The Backbeat show is all about the Oldies done by a WUSC Alumnus the way radio was in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s! High energy, lots of production value and even taking requests for our favorite oldies.” - Rick Wrigley

🎙️🎶 “Among the hundreds of microgenres that sprung up from the 1960s-1970s, perhaps none are so undefined as the vague “New Age music”. Central to and closely aligned with the spiritual movement of the same name, New Age records filled stores throughout California and played over the speakers of yoga studios for generations. It’s easy to imagine it. You hear twinkly, gentle synthesizers, possibly the sound of the ocean or nature, and even a guru guiding you in soft meditation... I am writing to make a case for New Age music as simply good, or otherwise interesting, music that deserves to be remembered. Even if you’ve never aligned a single chakra or only know your sun sign, there is plenty of great music under the New Age umbrella.”

“Imagine watching the car in front of you steer off a bridge and crash into the river. You look at your newlywed partner, who, without a second of hesitation, jumps in the water to save the drivers. The producers of “One Tree Hill” couldn’t have picked a more perfect song to use for this scene. With the contrast of quiet and delicate acoustics to the heavy outbursts, and the lyrics signaling being left behind by a loved one, viewers can see, hear and feel the pain alongside the main characters involved.

As a chronic movie and TV show connoisseur and music lover, certain songs and scenes that cause me to feel emotionally connected to what I am viewing are so impactful that I remember them long after watching. In this post, I’m going to share a few of my most memorable scenes and songs from my favorite TV shows and why they work.”
