Liner Notes for the Revolution offers a startling new perspective on these acclaimed figures—a perspective informed by the overlooked contributions of other Black women concerned with the work of their musical peers.

Margaret Beaufort was rich, beautiful and just 13 years of age when she discovered that she carried the future king of England within her body.

Caught up in the Wars of the Roses, Margaret was banished from court in disgrace, and although she later won the love and loyalty of three powerful men, her heart remained true to Edmund Tudor, the father of her son.
