b'I\\u2019m taking a few weeks off from the podcast, and since it\\u2019s Black History Month, I wanted to take this opportunity to highlight a few of the stories that I\\u2019ve done that honor the contributions and legacies of Black Americans. This week we\\u2019re going back to just a few weeks ago to Episode 21. Here\\u2019s \\u201cJames Brown 1968: Healing a Nation\\u2019s Wounds\\u201d, originally broadcast on January 25th of this year.\\n\\nI recently learned that historians credit a 1968 James Brown concert with saving the city of Boston from riots after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. In this special episode, I tell the story of the Boston Garden Concert and how it almost never happened.
