"Cry No More": A Response to the Charleston Shooting
By Rhiannon Giddens of the Carolina Chocolate Drops.
"The massacre at the Emanuel AME church in Charleston, South Carolina, in June is just the latest in a string of racially charged events that have broken my heart. There are a lot of things to fix in this world, but history says if we don't address this canker, centuries in the making, these things will continue to happen. No matter what level privilege you have, when the system is broken everybody loses. We all have to speak up when injustice happens. No matter what. And music is one of the best way I know to do so." —Rhiannon Giddens
