Inspired Sound Initiative brought something to disenfranchised youth that they may have not received anywhere else. It invited them to listen to music in a new way, send it into their soul and see what happens! What I witnessed happening was an expression of love, peace and permission to be oneself while music worked it’s magic. One youth literally back flipped on the stage! Our youth are used to expression through rap music, but this experience taught them that musical expression can happen through many genres. Thank you to this beautiful group that gave us permission to find our Promise Land through music. An experience that will never be forgotten.
