Q: The Podcast From Cbc Radio

This week, Canadian R&B musician Aquakultre (a.k.a. Lance Sampson) releases his new album, 1783. The title refers to a pivotal year for Afro-Nova Scotians: after the American War of Independence ended, thousands of Black Loyalists arrived in Nova Scotia seeking new homes. Lance traces his own family lineage back to those early settlers. He joins guest host Garvia Bailey to discuss the stories behind the record — and how that history continues to reverberate today.
