25 musicians from the United States, Caribbean and Africa eachcompose a song to fight against systemic racism in the world. Black Lives: From Generation to Generation,presents Black Music as a Source of Moral Truth and Potent Weapon against Racism. Conceived by producer Stefany Calembert, a multi-national and post-genre collective of artistsconvenes to fight for equality and social justice through musicDiverse roster includes Cheick Tidiane Seck, Oliver Lake, Alicia Hall Moran, Immanuel Wilkins, Stephanie McKay, Andy Milne, Kokayi, Reggie Washington, Jeremy Pelt, Grgory Privat, Marcus Strickland, Christie Dashiell, E.J. Strickland, Jacques Schwarz-Bart, Marvin Sewell, Jean-Paul Bourelly, among many others. There are (at least) two ways of approaching the compilation entitled Black Lives: From Generation to Generation, which presents Black music as a source of moral truth and potent weaponry against the scourge of racism. It was made by a collective of artists continuing to fight for equality and social justice through music. One of these perspectives is timely, ultra-literal and likely comprehensible to most; the other forms a less direct long-view, yet with a profound depth and reflection of the world. They present complementing views of contemporary life: a visceral reaction to the horrors of the era we currently populate, while illustrating the essential connections that the African diasporic tradition (often referred to as Great Black Music) makes between individuals, sounds, places and generations.
