Our Voices Will Change Their World
Posted in Peeps We Rep, baby/child, music, politickin' by thuy | Tags: agape, agape childrens choir, change our worldThe Agape Children’s Choir and Little Engine Productions have created a video called “Change My World,” with a non-partisan view, at encouraging voters to take an interest in our children’s future and taking their voices to the polls.
The emphasis of the words is on sending a positive political message while transcending party lines. Fifteen year-old Ayanna Stokes, who joined the choir at age ten, sings the lead vocals. This isn’t the first time Ayanna has used her musical talent in a political arena, as she was also a featured soloist for programs honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Stacy Peralta, an award winning documentary film maker known for such projects as Dogtown & Z Boys andRiding Giants, directed the video. The lyrics for the video, were written by Emmy nominated composer Tree Adams and producer Gina Matthews. Their collaborative goal was to use music as an inspiration, while using the voices of kids, to encourage voters to consider children and their future when they cast their ballots.
I recently attended Agape and pleasantly surprised to witness the children’s choir perform live. They sang, danced and even added in a message about recycling and the environment. Their performance was very inspiring, as is this video.
Do it for the children. Vote.
Thanks to Yosi Sergant for passing this along.
