In difficult times before when faced with injustice and the tyranny of wealth over humanity, music has served several purposes, it has sounded notes of hopeful joy, it has resonated with pain, and it has sung out in protest. In times of injustice art rises as witness, as resistance, as truth telling. Today it seems that something is missing. Where is the music of this moment?
Service leader Jeff May, assisted by Dede Dwyer and the music of Kevin Wyman and Maria DeFreitas, explores the lost chord of protest music that once served as a musical score for a common struggle and how we might begin to bring it back.
