Crossing Borders Music uses music to celebrate Black trailblazers in this rich, one-of-a-kind, 50-minute in-school performance. Through guided listening, students will hear the stories of Jean-Baptiste Pointe DuSable, Florence Price, and Rosa Parks come to life through music for string quartet by African-American composers
“Presenters were amazing! Very professional and engaging with students. Students were engaged and very interested in the information provided about Black Trailblazers. The program was amazing—there’s not much that could be added to make it stronger!” – feedback from a teacher at Communities In Schools of Chicago
