This
past weekend, we celebrated Freedom day, but is there really anything to
celebrate about when our mothers, sisters, daughters and grandmothers are under
threat due to this surge in rape and women abuse? This is not just about financial deprivation. It is
about spiritual emptiness and proof that a sizeable portion of our community
is enslaved mentally.
Inspired by the wRite Associates, IKS Consulting and Promotions joins hands with Tlale Makhene, Max-Hoba
and YOU to sensitize our community through music at the next Jazzy Soulful
Session. Do spread the word. Through music, we transcend barriers to communication. It is not enough to engage with these issues in August only! We need to do more throughout the year and take responsibility as artists regarding this matter. Artists have a
gift of communicating messages from the spiritual realm and these are the teachings that we need to guide us as human beings.
It is
not ok to promote music as merely a tool for entertaining people because real
music can do so much more than that. With that in mind, a portion of the income
generated from this event will go to People Opposing Women Abuse.
