Activist Songbook Virtual Choir #4: We Are Leaders

Posted June 18, 2020

Inspired by Wei Chen, Mary Yee, and Allison Budschalow By Byron Au Yong and Aaron Jafferis Featuring Jason Chu and Z Bell

We Are Leaders is inspired by Wei Chen and the students of South Philadelphia High School, who took a stand against anti-Asian violence, working with Chinese, Vietnamese, and Black student leaders to create lasting change in the system. By refusing to stay silent, these student leaders demonstrated that every time we come together, we win.
