    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.

    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!

    Changes and Rise up are two of my faves! I found that all the songs in the playlist fit well with the main theme of each module!
