"Let My People Go! - A Jewish & African American Celebration of Feedom"
by Kim & reggie Harris and Rabbi Jonathan Kligler
with Pete Seeger , Sonny Ochs and others!
On Sale at $15.00 shipping INCLUDED in the US with Visa & Mastercard
orders!
Let My People Go interweaves songs in Hebrew from the Passover Haggadah with
traditional Black spirituals, and songs from the Civil Rights era.
This CD is the outgrowth of the friendship between Black musician/activist
Reggie Harris and Jonathan Kligler, Rabbi of Kehillat Leven Shalem, the
Woodstock Jewish Congregation in New York. Their relationship grew to
include the
Harrises' attendance at the annual Kligler Seders, and the concept for this
collaboration; that oppression, struggle and hope are a common ground
between the
Jewish and African American communities.
Interspersed with the songs are spoken firsthand accounts of watershed events
in the modern Civil Rights Movement: Juanita Nelson describes her
desegregation battles in Washington, DC and Cincinnati, Rabbi Arthur Waskow
tells of his
life changing encounters with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Other accounts include Pete Seeger on the evolution of 'We Shall Overcome',
and Sonny Ochs on the songs her brother, Phil Ochs, compossed pertaining to
conditions in Mississippi. Included is a unique verison of Emma Lazarus',
"The
Collossus" set to Irving Berlin's "Give Me Your Tired Your Poor" entwined with
the spiritual, "Motherless Child". Highly recommended!
On Sale at $15.00 shipping included in the US with all Visa & Mastercard
orders.
