Sound Off x Justice Committee @ The People's Forum: NYC 2022-2023 Season Finale!
Musical-abolitionist collective Sound Off: Music for Bail (musicforbail.com) is partnering once more with Groupmuse to present a season finale worthy of the three-year mark this July 8th. Once more, they'll be hosted by the People's Forum!
This show features four of the East Coast's finest string musicians (violinists Justus Ross + Che Buford, violist Kyran Littlejohn, and cellist Emmanuel Losa) in string works by Tanyaradzwa Tawengwa, Sebastien Zel, Florence Price, and Akua Dixon. Sound Off is thrilled to partner once more with the Justice Committee, and to platform a speaker from their community.
From their website:
The Justice Committee (JC) is a grassroots organization dedicated to building a movement against police violence and systemic racism in New York City and empowering low-income Latinx and other people of color to address these issues. Recognizing that true power can only be exercised by unified communities we prioritize developing the leadership of both youth and elders and strive to make our organizing a multi-generational effort. By building solidarity with other anti-racist, immigrant and people of color-led organizations, we seek to contribute to a broad-based movement for social justice.
//
And if you can't make it in New York on the 8th but are in Philadelphia on the 9th, right, you're in luck -- Sound Off will be presenting the same musical program at 7 PM!
//
Food and drink will be available at the People's Forum cafe.
See you there!
