#Tunesday: “Bread and Roses” Music and Voting Rights

Read the history of this, first poem, then song, “Bread and Roses.” Our local women’s choir, MUSE, sings the song based on the theme.

Not at once; but woman is the mothering element in the world and her vote will go toward helping forward the time when life’s Bread, which is home, shelter and security, and the Roses of life, music, education, nature and books, shall be the heritage of every child that is born in the country, in the government of which she has a voice.

— Helen Todd, 1910.^[1]

#Tunesday “I Can’t Keep Quiet” @cincimusechoir

Often when we hear stories or have personal experience in wrestling with God it’s rare to hear that there was an immediate outcome…or one that could be defined at all. This week’s message will focus on the stories of Jacob wrestling “with a figure through the night” and the persistent widow. Have you wrestled with God? Have you fought for justice? What inspires you to seek justice and answers?

-Rev. Jenn Tafel

#Tunesday: “She Who Makes Her Meaning Clear” @cincimusechoir

Let the words and the voices touch your soul. Happy Tunesday. Grateful for the power of these voices and the women who sing them.

When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid. – Audre Lorde

Lyrics: “City Called Heaven”

I am a poor pilgrim of sorrow, I’m tossed in this wide world alone
No hope have I for tomorrow, I’ve started to Heaven my homeSometimes I am tossed and I’m driven, Lord
Sometimes I don’t know where to roam
I’ve heard of a city called Heaven
I’ve started to make it my homeMy mother has reached that pure glory
My father’s still walkin’ in sin
My brother and sister won’t own me
Because I’m tryin’ to get in

Sometimes I am tossed and I’m driven, Lord
Sometimes I don’t know where to roam
I’ve heard of a city called Heaven
I’ve started to make it my home

Sometimes I am tossed and I’m driven, Lord
Sometimes I don’t know where to roam
I’ve heard of a city called Heaven
I’ve started to make it my home

Everything is Possible with Love ❤️ #Tunesday #Pride of #Cincinnati
