In a perfect world, everyone would be treated fairly. It wouldn’t matter if your skin color was different than mine, or if one of us was unable to walk or talk. As long as we respected each other, we could live in peace. Isn’t it a shame that we do not live in a perfect world? As we close this year, and kick off a new one; let’s encourage our children to stand up for others. Alphabet Rockers’ newest release addresses this topic through song and dance.
Alphabet Rockers
We spark an intergenerational conversation about the world through hip hop music and dance. Partnering with anti-bias thought leaders and expert artists, our GRAMMY-nominated music is the soundtrack for social justice. We produce concerts, music and media to engage young changemakers and their adult allies. It’s time to be WOKE!

My Thoughts:
Being the mom of seven, we have had our moments of someone being picked on or made fun of by a sibling. We have always stopped it immediately and then addressed how wrong it is to pick on someone else especially someone that can’t defend themselves or have no control over their limitations.
Too soon our children are exposed to mean words and actions. It breaks their heart and they often don’t understand why.
For our family, this is a faith based issue. We believe that people comes in all shapes, colors, and sizes. They are all precious and should be treated with respect. We may not all agree on how to do things, but we do not have to be cruel to others just to make ourselves feel better.
These new releases by Alphabet Rockers tackles several topics that children have to deal with in today’s world. Their belief is that by teaching our children that their words and actions impact others, a change can be made in this world. Our children after all, will be our leaders tomorrow.
Make sure to check out all six (6) of the Alphabet Rockers releases on Bandcamp.com. For a limited time, you can save 20% on your purchase.
