Be the first to review this product

From the back cover:
"Sweet Honey in the Rock: Raise Your Voice!" is a feature-length documentary about Sweet Honey in the Rock, the Grammy award-winning a cappella vocal ensemble. Founded by activist/singer Bernice Johnson Reagon in 1973, today the group reaches across the globe, performing for sold-out audiences in Europe, Australia, and Japan as well as throughout the United States. No other ensemble has so successfully distilled the essence of the musical legacy of African Americans.

Raise Your Voice is a riveting cinematic portrait of the world-renowned vocal group's 30th year, as it takes its breathtaking sound and political message to a changing America and struggles with a surprise decision by founder Reagon. Using gorgeous concert footage, rare archival stills, behind-the-scenes footage, and in-depth interviews with group members and Sweet Honey's loyal fans, this 90-minute documentary celebrates the power of song."

Directed by Stanley Nelson, produced by Firelight Media. Originally seen on Thirteen/WNET New York's American Masters series on PBS.
