In honor of the birthday of Dr. King and Patrice Lumumba who was assassinated this week, I wanted to showcase sisters, worldwide, lifting their voices and their instruments in protest.
Some of these sisters are ones we know, some are ones we don't, but all are the epitome of dreams, hopes, and aspirations for humanity. I hope you all enjoy this amazing journey this beautiful afternoon.
Thank you to all the folks who called this afternoon giving me kudos, praising the music and women you heard, or generally showing support. Special shout out to Mabet of Habesha Market and Kat Okedeyi of LSP.
Diva of the Day, Andrea
