Micah Ling, MSU Traditional Arts Program - “Clad in the Working Class: Blue-Collar Style and American Folk Music”

American folk music is often the soundtrack of labor movements—the rallying cries and songs that tell the story of workers’ struggles. This talk explores the way that blue-collar attire is used by folk and roots musicians in the United States regardless of their own labor backgrounds to show solidarity, express identity, and connect with the histories of the music.

MSU Library’s Visiting Scholars program welcomes researchers at all levels to make use of our world-class collections related to (but not limited to) popular culture, comics, rare books, Africana, LGBTQ activism, Michigan writers, cookery and foodways, as well as both the radical left and right. Every summer, a cohort comes to the Library’s Special Collections Reading Room to conduct research and, toward the end of their time, presents on what they were able to discover in our collection and how it advances their scholarship. The presentations are an informal way to connect with scholars and their research at MSU Libraries.
