Respected LadyLand - Albertina Walker & The Caravans

Albertina Walker may have been the leader of this legendary Chicago-based gospel group, but she created an egalitarian environment encouraging all the ladies in the group to stand in the spotlight.  No less than 6 major gospel superstars originated from this group including Shirley Caesar, Dorothy Norwood, Bessie Griffin, Inez Andrews, Cassietta George, and of course Walker herself.  

This episode of Respected LadyLand takes time out to acknowledge this musical force.
