Playlist for Women's Lib

Need some musical inspiration? Checkout this Women's Liberation playlist featured in the Smithsonian Folkways Magazine,  a publication of the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage, put together this inspiring playlist.

"In recognition of the 2017 Women's March on Washington, Smithsonian Folkways spotlights songs of women's liberation. Spanning several decades of material, the themes in this playlist range from labor conditions and civil rights to women's health and the legal system. Featuring artists such as Quetzal, Barbara Dane, Peggy Seeger, and Malvina Reynolds, Smithsonian Folkways honors the many women and men who contribute to furthering public discourse on women's rights."

Nourished by our diversity we shine brigther

The United States of America
a country brightened
by our diverse population

We are all
immigrants 
refugees
who seek luminosity
in our quest for self-actualization
community connection

Together we are a rainbow of light
arching across lands, seas, skies
beyond borders
our glow fueled
by hopes
and
by dreams

Open our hearts
open our minds
open our hands
open our borders to the possibilities

Nourished by our diversity
we shine brighter
