Kim & Reggie Harris sing songs of the Civil Right Movement in a program open to members from all The Big Read libraries.
WEDNESDAY, March 17th at 7 p.m. at the Lisle Library District
Music is often a unifying element in a political movement, succinctly and emphatically reminding people of what they are fighting for, while providing inspiration and hope. The Civil Rights Movement was no exception. Drawing on traditional folk songs and incorporating the music from the American Folk Music Revival, the songs of the Civil Rights Movement helped bring a societal change to America that may never be equaled in importance.
Singers, songwriters, storytellers, educators, interpreters of history, and cultural advocates, Kim and Reggie Harris have spent two decades showcasing the music of social change. Hear them and sing with them.
