about

This album is a musical love letter to the world we need. May it spread some Love, justice, freedom, hope, virtue, peace, and gratitude. We hope it can be like a musical vaccination against hatred and bigotry, as well as a road map towards the world we need. The Tao Te Ching says, “Sow the great in the small. Difficult things of the world are best tackled in their small beginnings.” Research shows us that prejudice forms very early on (before age 3!) but that we can interrupt that prejudice when we talk in our homes and classrooms about our differences, about fairness, about caring, and sharing with all people. Thank you for supporting our work and supporting the children. Fifty percent of album sales will go towards organizations working on equitable access to education, children’s advocacy, and anti-racist education.
