Really appreciate the range on this playlist. It is a great reminder of the diversity that exists among Black musicians and artists and an important teaching that a wide range of music can be featured and celebrated in youth meetings and programming spaces.
This range when shared also makes it possible for Black youth in programming spaces to bring their unique interests and talents to a group or space.

My faves are: If I have a son, Preach, Brown Skin Girl, and Rise Up!

Thank you for sharing! The must in the videos was so great!

Music has such a powerful connection, and a couple of times while doing the modules, I would go back and listen to the amazing song selections again just because of the messages and feelings they conveyed. When I first heard ‘If I Have a Son’ by Ruth B. in a module, it made me cry. The words ‘I hope I see the day where I don’t have to pray/Every time you go’ hit me hard. They really reminded me again of what incredibly important work it is to talk about anti-Black racism, and the very real implications these modules of enriching education, emotional experiences, and research insights, have for all of society to do better.

Music is food to the soul. This is a great playlist and I find myself dancing at the beginning and the end of each lecture. I am so happy to have access to the playlist. Blessings!

Thank you! Many of these artists are new to me but I loved all the music snippets and love that you’ve put the playlist so I can listen more!

I Just Wanna Live! Title says it all, too many people existing in this world, not enough people thriving and living. Survival is not a way of life, one chooses, it’s imposed!
