"We hear through time, in different languages and contexts, from one hemisphere to another: Black power. Blackness is African roots, a rainbow of shades, a proud and political fact when animosity surrounds our people.
Artists and community healers have had to ascend above the fray for our planetary future. Music combines a love for art and unbridled expression. It's liberation in purest form. The diaspora channels ancient African rhythms, that brought blues' ancestors to American shores.
Modern-day rockers found liberation through percussive call-and-response that was transfused into metal. Africa's children claim Blackness as a source of strength: a bridge between past, present and a progressive future. This brings the dual consciousness that W.E.B. DuBois described. It's the god in us. And now, we finally can hold onto it.
These are revolutionary times."
