AudioMo Day 21 - Amos and Andy Radio Show

The history of the Amos and Andy radio show is all about uncomfortable history. But uncomfortable history doesn't exempt you from knowing about it. 

This team pioneered a form of storytelling and method of syndication. On the other hand, they brought every trope that was in minstrel and vaudeville performances to a national audience. 

 


AudioMo is an international participation of folks that want to share what they can do with the audio format. This is a captioned audio for those folks that are deaf, hearing impaired or English is not their native language.
