How can YOU use your voice to amplify the changes you want to make happen?

Welcoming Chicago-based artists Sue Fink and Wendy Parman to dig into their initiative, '50 Shades of Blue: The Resistance Sings,' a concert aimed at raising awareness and inspiring action through music, benefitting the nonprofit organization Democracy Forward. This conversation is a call to artists and audiences alike to engage creatively and actively in the fight for democracy and justice.

We cover a LOT of ground including:

• Humanity and Inclusion
• The Birth of 50 Shades of Blue: The Resistance Sings
• The Role of Artists in Times of Crisis
• Navigating Communication, Protest Songs, and Conflicting Family Dynamics
• The Power of Finding Inspiration and Community and Filling Your Cup
• Choosing Democracy Forward as an Organization to Support
• The Power of Peaceful Protest
• Balancing Activism and Life
• Staying Hopeful in Challenging Times
