On and On - War and Pierce

Uploaded on Feb 21, 2017 by Playing For Change...

We are excited to share a video from a talented 21st Century Blues singer/songwriter duo and friends of ours, War & Pierce. "On and On" is a powerful testament to how far we've come as a human race but also speaks to how far we have to go in order to reach freedom and justice for all. Let us not forget that WE have to be the change we want to see in the world and as the song says, "It's our right, to right the wrong." ( Extracted from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31oKGqurCbE).

As supporters of Playing For Change we are notified when  new music is published and appreciate the dedication, love, skill and talent that goes into creating each piece. All of this is done to improve the world we live in and create a better future for the children of the world. If you would like more information you can click on this link.

Thank You Malala

Let us become the first generation to decide to be the last that sees empty classrooms, lost childhoods, and wasted potential.

Let this be the last time that a boy or a girl spends their childhood in a factory.

Let this be the last time that a girl is forced into early child marriage.

Let this be the last time that an innocent child loses life in war.

Let this be the last time that a child remains out of school.

Let this end with us. (Malala Yousafzai, December 11 2014).


Thank you Malala, you are an example to us all. There will be no real peace or progress on this planet until there is justice and equality for all........ Learn more about Malala at http://malala.org
