"I started to realize that even though I'm American, and America's the only place that I know, I don't feel like this country is talking about me when they talk about Americans or American ideals," one young woman said.
I remember the 1st time in our rehearsal room heard @Phillipasoo sing the end of the show. We were all on the floor crying. And I couldn’t believe she could keep singing. I have marveled at her strength & beauty & honesty & simplicity since the moment I met her. It is her time.
A reminder that #TamirRice was killed for having a toy gun, while #PatriciaMcCloskey pointed a gun at peaceful protesters with her hand ON the trigger & is still practicing law + sits on the Missouri Bar Association’s ethics panel.

@DarckShining Abrumada y triste por todo lo que está pasando en el mundo, deseando un cambio, pero agradecida por todas las cosas hermosas que la vida me ha regalado...
Watch this video.
Do not leave home without your smart phones. And when you see racism in action, call it out and make it go viral. We may not be able to change racists’ hearts, but we can reveal them for what they are.
I’m sick of hearing people talk about how ‘uncomfortable’ it makes them to confront others for bigoted comments, behaviors, or actions. There are no valid excuses to allow blatant racism exist. Your silence is just as much of a problem as the people you let slide.
DO SOMETHING.
THUGS ?? these people are protesting against the fact that one of YOUR animalistic white policemen kneeled on George’s windpipe and forced him to stop breathing and killed him?? THUGS???? Are you listening to yourself?
If there is one thing the Virtual Choir has taught me it is that regardless of race, creed, color, gender, or voice type, singers all over the world love to procrastinate.
