Youth in Goma, DRC express themselves through music and art

Posted by Dustyn Winder

“This week, it is time for young artists of Goma to EXPRESS themselves. They are drawers, painters, musicians, dancers, and they have decided, through their art, to spread the word about the war that is ravaging their country.”

Voices of the youth from Eastern Congo: “EXPRESS” — Condition: Critical

This is a very well-done video about the role music and the arts plays as a form of expression in eastern DRC.

It’s a bit dramatic, but still very well-done.

It’s also quite relevant to the Jazz for Justice Project.
