James Baldwin's Playlist
If you are in search for the perfect playlist to read, write or dance around your flat to, Hammer Museum's curator Ikechúkwú Onyewuenyi has compiled James Baldwin's record collection into a 32-hour playlist.
We have obsessively listened to the likes of Aretha Franklin and Patti LaBelle while assembling your January Newsletter which flew out to your inboxes yesterday. This playlist manages perfectly to capture the atmosphere of the house in Saint-Paul de Vence in the South of France where Baldwin lived, wrote and was joined by guests like Nina Simone, Stevie Wonder, Maya Angelou and Toni Morrison.
Enjoy!
