About the Event

​The  musical history of the U.S. constitutes a unique and powerful lens for deepening our grasp of how culture has sometimes confronted—but too often reinforced—oppressive systems that terrorize historically disenfranchised communities. ​

With an emphasis on  women, nonconformists, artists of the African diaspora, each week of this workshop and discussion group explores stories about the true roots of American culture.

Each artist profile will serve to ground participants in historical knowledge as we engage in facilitated, constructive discussions about how participants can use their knowledge and power to effect positive change in their families, workplaces, and communities.

FORMAT

A group of 10  participants meets weekly for 90 minute workshop sessions via Zoom video conference for 8 consecutive weeks starting Tuesday, Dec 1st. (Dec 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 Jan 5, 12, 19)
