This week on Hashtag History, we will be discussing Sam Cooke. He is one of my (Rachel's) favorite musical artists and, upon learning that he was also a huge advocate of the Civil Rights Movement and that he died a truly tragic (and incredibly mysterious death) at only thirty-three years old, just has me even more fascinated with the artist behind the art.
