From Pain to (Self) Love...

We've been thinking a lot about the stages of grief, and how to heal.  We deal with this constantly; not just with the socio-political situations occurring; but with general relationships as well.  We wanted to take this month to explore these stages, primarily through music. 

This week is going to be exploring the 'lament'- lyrical responses to unrequited love, toxic relationships and other forms of heartbreak/grief.  It is important to allow a space for grieving, particularly when there's been so much consistent trauma.  The second show this month will be our annual show in honor of teacher Michael Jackson; however, with a focus on specific ways we are working towards healing from trauma- as an individual, and part of our communities.  This period is even MORE important, in order to move forward.  Not only are our actions important to contributing to that healing process, but our words as well.
