On this first Monday of Black History month, two giants of movement music light our way:
“…The communal singing that people do together is a way of announcing that we’re here, that this is real. And so anybody who comes into that space, as long as you’re singing, they cannot change the air in that space. The song will maintain the air as your territory” — Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon, founding member of the SNCC Freedom Singers and @sweethoneyrocks73
“When the music is strong, the movement is strong.”
—. Harry Belafonte
