Maryland Governor Wes Moore and his wife, Dawn, shared a heartfelt moment as they sang Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song” to kick off their personal playlist in celebration of Black Music Month. The video, posted to social media, features a mix of iconic tracks that have shaped Black culture and resistance — from Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday to The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and C.R.E.A.M. by Wu-Tang Clan. Governor Moore, the first African American to lead the state of Maryland, has deep Jamaican roots — his mother hails from Trelawny, Jamaica. In the caption, he wrote: “Dawn and I pulled together something special in honor of #BlackMusicMonth.” 📲 Listen to their full playlist here: go.md.gov/BlackMusicMonthPlaylist
