Boston Children's Chorus-Road to Freedom
Symphony Hall
Symphony Hall, Boston, MA
Any time you beg another man to set you free, you will never be free. Freedom is something that you have to do for yourselves. – Malcolm X
Join Boston Children's Chorus on a journey as we explore the intersecting paths of two iconic figures in the fight for civil rights: Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. In Road to Freedom, we delve into the complex and multifaceted relationship between these two towering figures, highlighting their shared struggles, divergent tactics, and ultimate contributions to the fight for equality.
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, though often portrayed as ideological opposites, shared an unwavering commitment to the cause of civil rights and a common vision of freedom and dignity for all. Through powerful music and poignant narratives, we trace their respective journeys from disparate beginnings to their converging paths in the pursuit of a common goal: the realization of a more just and equitable society.
Join our singers as we continue to walk the Road to Freedom, inspired by the grit and courage of those who came before us, and determined to create a world where we are all truly free.
