Through their work, musicians often focus or dedicate their
talent on giving voice to civil rights and social change, strengthening the
breadth and depth of social activism. On April 3rd, the Valley Jazz Network
hosts JAZZ MUSIC AND SOCIAL CHANGE which creates a public platform for sharing
and understanding how some artists use their talent to forward social issues
and contribute a positive impact on society. At the table will be three
world-class musicians: renown activist, lyricist and singer Toshi Reagon;
trumpeter Christian Scott; and Asian American pianist Helen Sung.
Admission is free, but tickets are required. For information
