Today, we dive deep into Beyoncé’s discography, seeing how she deals with class, race, relationships, and gender, from her earliest Destiny’s Child songs to her latest, politically-aware songs. We ask whether such a song as Formation inherits the tradition of protest music evident in such a singer as Nina Simone. Finally, Barbara interviews Dr. Juliet Watson from RMIT University about Beyoncé and celebrity feminism.
