You’ll hear playlists from St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter, US Representative Ilhan Omar, Minneapolis City Council member Andrea Jenkins and owner of African-inspired Heritage Tea House, Raeisha Williams. They share their Black History Month playlists that include songs that have given them wisdom and made them think, as well as celebrate things they love about black music.
