Martin Luther King Jr. Day Social Justice Music Celebration: Taína Asili y la Banda Rebelde and Friends

January 15, 2016 @ 7:00 pm 11:00 pm EST

Taína Asili y la Banda Rebelde will do their second annual MLK Day social justice music celebration, offering a soundtrack to honor the work of our continuing social justice movements. Join our social justice dance party, to launch the 10th Anniversary Celebration at The Sanctuary for Independent Media! From 7:00-8:00: Music and Art- The Fuel that Keeps Our Movement Going will present projections of music video excerpts, from archival footage of the civil rights movement from the 60’s to now, with music by DJ Truemaster. From 8-9:30 pm Taína Asili y la Banda Rebelde will perform with special guest social justice artists, including hip hop MC Masai, Atg, and poet Amani Olugbala. From 9:30-11:00 pm DJ Truemaster rocks the house! Part of the proceeds from the night will go to Capital Area Against Mass Incarceration.

We are committed to lowering the barriers to access for events at The Sanctuary for Independent Media. For people who are hard of hearing or deaf, blind or low-vision, or whose physical limitations can interfere with a satisfying experience, let us know two weeks in advance so we can make appropriate arrangements.
