The Village Trip presents:
Let Freedom Ring! Music and Voices of the March for Civil Rights, Then and Now
On Thursday, September 21st, in the Great Hall at Cooper Union, Let Freedom Ring! Music and Voices of the March for Civil Rights, Then and Now will honor both the great March on Washington of 1963 and the ongoing battle for civil rights, justice and equality for all. This unique evening of music, dance and spoken word will entertain, elevate, and inspire, sending all of us home determined to fight the good fight. Jazz great Fred Johnson is the “melodic host” of a program that will feature a dazzling array of talent, including singer Antoinette Montague, Tiffany Rea-Fisher, award-winning choreographer and Artistic Director of the EMERGE125 dance company, and Stephanie Pacheco, New York City Youth Poet Laureate.
EMERGE125 will be performing Tiffany Rea-Fisher’s work, John Brown Lives. We hope you will join us for this special evening of celebration!
All profits will go to the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, an institution whose raison d’être is part of the Black experience.
