Em 1969, no mesmo verão em que ocorreu Woodstock, outro festival musical foi organizado no Harlem, em Nova Iorque, para celebrar a música norte-americana e a história afro-americana. As imagens do concerto Harlem Cultural Festival, filmadas há 50 anos e inéditas até hoje, capturam um empolgante momento cultural nos Estados Unidos, embora subestimado historicamente. Entrevistas com artistas que participaram do evento são intercaladas com as apresentações de, entre outros, Stevie Wonder, Mahalia Jackson e Mavis Staples, Sly & the Family Stone e Nina Simone.
