#TBT to performing "Waterboy" at the 2015 AmericanaFest in Nashville. Performing Odetta’s version of "Waterboy" was the key that opened up the gate to my solo career, when I debuted it on the concert Another Day, Another Time: Celebrating The Music of 'Inside Llewyn Davis' - all I knew then is that I didn’t want to let the spirit of Odetta down, and I do my best to continue to try to tap into her indomitable will. This song is available on the compilation from that evening. | Rhiannon Giddens

This is a song that was made popular during the Civil Rights movement in the States during the 60s, but there are versions of it everywhere. Here, @francescoturrisimusic and I perform a particular version that I learned from my mentor, Joe Thompson- the North Carolina / Piedmont version of ‘I Shall Not Be Moved’.

The Appalachian folk song “Swannanoa Tunnel” is a cornerstone of Silkroad's American Railroad project. Born out of the work of unpaid and mistreated Black convict railroad workers, its origins have been largely lost as it became known as a white bluegrass standard. While filming season 2 of #MyMusicPBS, we took a deeper look into the story of “Swannanoa Tunnel,” from its origins to its erasure to its inclusion on the American Railroad tour. Watch the full video on Silkroad’s YouTube channel or a

The new documentary American Coup: Wilmington 1898, co-directed by Brad Lichtenstein and Yoruba Richen, tells the little-known story of a deadly race massacre and carefully orchestrated insurrection in North Carolina’s largest city in 1898 – the only coup d’état in the history of the United States. I’m proud to have contributed a few songs (including co-written and recorded with Dirk Powell) and voiceover for the film. The documentary premieres Today at 9pm ET/8pm CT on PBS and the PBS App. More

Today marks International Wrongful Conviction Day. It is so important for us to honor those who have been wrongfully convicted and do our part to raise awareness of the causes and remedies of wrongful conviction. Last year I worked in partnership with Pennsylvania Innocence Project on the "Another Wasted Life" video to pay tribute to 22 exonerees. | Rhiannon Giddens

This is the Butler Island Plantation, a rice plantation in Darien, Georgia. It was owned by Major Pierce Butler who was a founder Father of the US and a huge supporter of slavery. Butler Island itself was home to hundreds of enslaved Africans and African - Americans who toiled under the hot Georgia sun harvesting rice, cotton and indigo. Around this time 164 years ago, 429 enslaved people were forcibly taken from the island and sold at the largest slave auction in the US at a horse race track in
