Race and Song is an exploration of history and current events through the lens of race — and using the powerful tool of music. Veteran musicians and storytelling troubadours,
Reggie Harris and
Alastair Moock, rely on their years-old friendship to discuss complicated issues of race, class, gender, and history with intentionality and generosity of spirit. Together in musical conversation, they open up to each other and frame their lived experiences through music, which always helps the medicine go down!
Over the past few years, Reggie and Alastair have brought meaningful and accessible conversations about race to a wide range of audiences in a wide range of spaces. One of their greatest strengths as a duo is their ability to meet the audience where they are. “Race and Song” has toured all around the country: to theaters, performing arts centers, houses of worship, libraries, senior centers, and many, many schools, from elementary to high school, and also at the college level.
