The program includes a few pieces of music journalism including a piece by Julius Lester on The Mileston Festival a two-day festival that celebrated African-American roots music in Mileston Mississippi. The festival was organized by and for Black people and was inspired by multiple conferences of people active in the Civil Rights movement. A number of other local festivals designed to celebrate and uplift the Black community took place after this festival and Lester's article outlines a few examples of such events. The Newport Folk Festival is still held today. This program celebrates the festival but also celebrates local organizers of small music scenes all around the country. Individual artisans are also advertised in this program along with an ad for American Airlines and a few corporate record label advertisements. An attractive piece of Americana.
