Today on Rise Up Radio, we talked with Vanessa Green, Civil Rights Leader & Freedom Fighter. She organizes with Black Lives Matter Hudson Valley. We listened to the words of Civil Rights Activists of the past - Martin Luther King Jr., Kwame Ture (Stokely Carmichael) & Angela Davis. We talked about the Black Women's March, the movement for black lives, and how we can achieve our goals no matter how we move to achieve it.
We heard music from:
Janelle Monae - Electric Lady
Nina Simone - Mississippi God Damn
Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation
Lauryn Hill - Doo Wop (That Thing)
Common - The People
