We bring you the sounds of soulful sisterhood as we celebrate Women's History Month. We'll get out on the dance floor with Chaka Khan and Gloria Gaynor, meet the woman bandleader behind Minnie the Moocher, and celebrate women who've fought for justice: Ella Baker, Sojourner Truth, and Harriet Tubman. We'll also observe the 50th anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery march with music from The Cole Boyz and Blue Mitchell.
