A People's History of the Guitar is about people, guitars, people and their guitars, and guitars and their people. We'll be exploring histories, origins, innovation, triumphs, and tragedies, and talking to well-known, little known, and unknown people who make music with the guitar, and who make, and think about the instrument. A People's History of the Guitar starts with the idea that the guitar belongs to all of us, and it deserves a history for all of us.

Kansas City composer Dana Suesse was behind some of the most popular American music of the 1930s.

When Australia was invaded in 1788, the new colony’s nascent ruling class deployed violence and repression on two fronts. On one side of the frontier, the colonial administration used troops and pastoralists to wage genocidal war against Aboriginal nations, and on the internal side of the frontier, very often the same troops and the same pastoral e…

Most of Kansas was once covered by an ocean of grass and wildflowers. But that diverse prairie biome is collapsing, partly because of our obsession with trees. Humans have unleashed an aggressive “Green Glacier” that’s swallowing the Great Plains, and for these ranchers, saving the environment means being a tree killer — not a tree hugger. (This ep…

70 years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional in its landmark decision Brown v. Board of Education.
