Songs of Hope, Peace and Freedom
These are the songs sung by the talented and very famous recording artists who were the trailblazers in fighting for fairness, all rights, justice and freedom for all. Their goal was to help create a peaceful land on earth between all people. World famous musicians like Mahalia Jackson, Nina Simone, Bob Marley, The Staple Singers, Curtis Mayfield, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, and many more. Their main and most important musical purpose in life was to use their artistry and creative platforms to spread love through recordings and live music shows…for all mankind to enjoy. Their song writing was specific in support of the dream of MARTIN LITHER KING, who stood and died fighting for freedom. These were the “musical freedom fighters” who fought to support the Civil Rights Movement.
