A creative exploration of how belief and conviction can change the course of history!
Seeds of Freedom is not only an artistic retelling of our history, but an invitation for reflection and personal response to the call for Unity in helping our country keep its promise to its people of “liberty and justice for all.”

Str8 Up Frederick Douglass in Rhythm Rap and Jazz is a
hip-hop exploration of the life and legacy of this prophet and freedom-fighter. Featuring original content, music and dance inspired by his words and determination, six artists, under the direction of Deborah Asante with the Asante Art Institute of Indianapolis, use their creativity to campaign for a brighter future for all.
