DESCRIPTION:https://youtu.be/ETV8WeTghZ8\n\n\n \n\n[image: Dr Martin Luther King Jr. waving to the crowd from the steps of the Lincoln] \nIn the Great Hall where Lincoln spoke and the NAACP was born\, Let Freedom Ring! Music and Voices of the March for Civil Rights\, Then and Now will honor the sixtieth anniversary of the March on Washington\, with an evening of song\, dance\, and oratory that address the way our society confronts discrimination\, inequality\, and oppression.  \nConceived and created by award-winning poet\, playwright\, and storyteller Daniel Carlton (March On) and directed by David Deblinger\, this unique evening with Fred Johnson as melodic host\, will entertain\, elevate\, and inspire. \nAll profits will go to the National Jazz Museum in Harlem\, an institution whose raison d’être is part of the Black experience. \nWorking with HB Studio\, the National Jazz Museum in Harlem\, the Straz Center for the Performing Arts\, and the Cooper Union\, The Village Trip has assembled a stellar group of musicians\, speakers\, and performers who will express the joy and heartache of bending the arc of the moral universe toward justice. Let Freedom Ring! – like The Village Trip itself – will honor the ongoing struggle for freedom\, equality\, and social justice for all. \nThe evening brings together a diverse group of artists to celebrate all our humanity through story\, song\, poetry\, movement\, and excerpts from Daniel Carlton’s March On\, a play with a cappella songs and music that capture the stories of a multicultural group of people who participated in the March on Washington. The play follows the characters from their arrival on the Great Mall to the climactic moment of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. Intertwined with these stories will be freedom songs past and present\, plus poetry and spoken word by special guest artists who will connect past struggles with today’s fights for justice. The evening will end in rally-style as an interactive call to action. March on! \nPerformers include:  \n\n Antoinette Montague\nDavid Amram\nHasan Bakr\nMolly Collier\nAlvin Keith\nLaurént Grant Williams\nJoseph Wisniewski\nLori Sinclair Minor\n\nStephanie Pacheco\nTiffany Rea-Fisher\nLucki Islam\nNabaté Isles\n\nLet Freedom Ring Program!\n\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n  \nView of the crowd at 1963 March on Washington\n\n\n\n\n			\n		\n			\n			BUY TICKETS ON EVENTBRITE

SUMMARY:Labor Rights After the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire: A Social Justice Walk with Historian Daniel Katz
DESCRIPTION:Photo: Mourners line the streets during a funeral procession for victims of the Triangle fire\, April 5\, 1911 \nphotograph of fire fighters at the triangle shirtwaist factory\nOn Saturday\, March 25\, 1911\, at the end of the work day\, a fire began on the 8th floor of the Triangle Garment Factory. Within thirty minutes\,146 of the 500 workers laboring on floors eight\, nine\, and ten would die. Most were young immigrant women. The tragedy provoked outrage\, union movement building\, and led to political reform in New York and states around the country\, eventually influencing Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal legislation of the 1930s. \nDaniel Katz will lead a tour beginning at Cooper Union at Astor Place\, proceeding to the NYU Brown building on Washington Place\, the site of the fire\, and up to Union Square\, where the social justice legacy of the fire continued for a century. A portion of every ticket sold will go toward building the Triangle Fire memorial now under construction at the site of the fire. \nMore about Daniel Katz \nMeet at 7 East 7th Street (Cooper Union)\, New York\, NY  10003 \nPhotos: Cornell University\, Kheel Center \n\n\n\n\n			\n		\n			\n			BUY TICKETS ON EVENTBRITE
