America has always identified itself with the idea of Freedom, yet it has always struggled to apply that to everyone, specifically Black, Brown and Asian peoples and all women. Jazz is America’s original music form, born and developed in African American communities across the US. AFA and VISION celebrates the coming together of Freedom and Jazz in FreeJazz, with performances that bring healing and inspiration. In this time of real fear that the freedoms and security that we took for granted are being stolen, All Americans need to have the Heart to Resist. Holding onto the legacy of freedom and its struggle with its roots in African American culture, we the organizers and the artists aim to inspire and empower resistance. Through music, dance, poetry and art, we will bring “The Healing Force of the Universe” and the creative spirit of this incredible lineup of exceptional artists, to lend our strength and stand up to those who would destroy what was good in America.
