Juneteenth Celebration: Songs of Liberation, Freedom and Disability Awareness

The People’s Music Network will honor and celebrate Juneteenth with our third online community art performance event on Thursday, June 6, 2024.  In this Zoom event, members of the People's Music Network and artists from around the world will share poetry and songs of Liberation, Freedom and Disability Awareness in honor of Juneteenth.  We have curated songs that speak to the struggles of people fighting for a better world, free from war, poverty, racism, and all forms of oppression.  We're prioritizing inclusion of artists with disabilities who are physically unable to attend the many in-person Juneteenth events taking place later in the month.
