Eclectic Playlist part 2: Black History Month

Written February 7, 2019

(2/19/21 edit: I forgot to explain why I’m doing these playlists. A long time ago when I was reading the Twilight series I went on Stephenie Meyer’s website and she had playlists of songs that influenced her while writing the series. I thought this was cool and I really love all kinds of music, so I just ended up being inspired by her playlists and wrote my own lists of songs that I’ve been listening to over the years.)
