One of the things that FUNK represents is the idea that for the first time young Black people had the chance to do something quite simple as "Expressing Yourself". Back in the late 1960's and early 1970's these young "funkateers" expressed themselves in their music, politics, culture and lifestyle. Charles Wright was one of the leading voices from a musical perspective, urging these young "funkateers" to 'express themselves'. Today in many respects we have grown to take that level of expression for granted. On Nov. 12, 1997 at 9:30 pm est we were honored to have Charles Wright as our guest in the Music Urban Sounds FUNK chat room to drop some knowlege on us about his distinguished career, tell us what he is up to today and to help us put in to perspective the past, present and future of Black music.
