"Sharon Nyree Williams is a consummate storyteller, complex word weaver, and compassionate cultivator of deep humanity. She is fiercely tender in her inquiry into our individual and collective struggle to do better: to provoke more justice, truth, and love in this world. Sharon's singularly powerful voice has a universal reach."

Lift Every Voice
Bridging the Past & Present
​
Lift Every Voice and Sing, known as the Black National Anthem, is a timeless hymn of hope, unity, and resilience. I created this rendition in for the Black Future Co-Op Fund’s Black Well-being: Moving Toward Solutions Together event.
It is my hope that this performance brings you joy, sparks meaningful conversations, and honors the legacy of this iconic anthem.
Watch, reflect, and share.
