Summary
For this album, "Brownlee has commissioned six of today's leading African-American composers - Damien Sneed, Brandon Spencer, Jasmine Barnes, Joel Thompson, and Shawn E. Okpebholo - to set poetry from the Harlem Renaissance to song, including poems by... Claude McKay, Langston Hughes, James Weldon Johnson, and more. The songs revolve around themes of joy, empowerment, faith, love, and strength in the face of challenge. "--Singer's website
