MUSIC, MEANING, MESSAGE, + NEW ALBUM UPDATE
Long story short: With no live events in the foreseeable future, we are going to focus less on music, and more on promoting compassion, mindfulness, antiracism, and social change within our community. With all the gears grinding toward the release of this album, and all streaming services scheduled to release this week – our hearts are instead focused on how we can be interactive with other human beings and give back to the world around us. Long story long: If you’re feeling exhausted by the conflict and racism in this country, we hear you! It’s normal to feel overwhelmed… but there’s a lot more work to be done with regard to confronting racism and uniting against it for racial justice. By feeling empathy for people who have endured unimaginable suffering for centuries, we can stand in solidarity and learn more about how to participate in social change, never looking away just because it’s hard to witness. [check out the cartoon by Victor Varnado – it’s perfectly poignant] While it seems just PAINFULLY OBVIOUS, millions of Americans still need to learn that there can be no social justice until all black lives matter – Black lives are as precious and priceless
