In this episode we sit down with Levi Gettleman and Elise Suarez, two of our undergraduate seniors. Our department would not be what it is without our undergraduate program and Levi and Elise are two stellar examples. Levi is double majoring in Folklore & Ethnomusicology and Jewish Studies focusing on Jewish folklore, rituals, foodways, and identity and their intersections with American regional cultures and identity. Elise is triple-majoring (!) in English, History, and Folklore & Ethnomusicology and is interested in researching oral and written narratives, particularly urban legends. Hear about their manifold activities, how Folklore and Ethnomusicology fit into their undergraduate experience, and more in this highlight episode. Enjoy!

The Black Church and Illegibility of Black Talent, with Dr. Fredara Hadley
Inspired by IU Alumna Dr. Fredara Mareva Hadley's (The Julliard School) feature in The Black Church documentary (PBS, 2021), ethnomusicology PhD Candidate Kennedi Johnson and current graduate student Joseph Johnson speak with her in this first episode of SoundLore's second season. Topics range from the role of the Black Church in Dr. Hadley's life and research to a broader discussion about music pedagogies in the different spaces they've experienced, what 'diversity, equity, and inclusion' mean in these spaces, the usefulness of ethnomusicological training in working with communities, and the place of public work in academia.
