Music is often referred to as the universal language. It is capable of evoking every emotion from love and fondness to rage, grief and even melancholy. It can make a person sob or make them dance, drive too fast or slow their breathing. No matter where you are on your journey of self discovery, we all have the right to see ourselves, our sexualities, our gender identities, and our community reflected in media. Come explore with us the many ways music can uplift our identities.
