"You judge a civilization by how it treats its weakest"
If we want to evolve into a "type 1 civilization," a civilization which can co-exist on a planet and not kill ourselves and destroy our planet, we need to recognize we are more alike than we are different. In the final analysis, every culture wants the same things. Love, safety and happiness for ourselves and our children. Our differences are truly smaller than we think. The can be reconciled. We believe we can do this through the arts. Through music. With one song, written and peformed in every major language on the planet. We have begun with two cultures and languages which share more in common than you might think - American English and Haitian Creole. Two cultures which rised up to defeat opression and become a beacon of freedom to the world and show that "you can build a city paved of gold, but it build it on your brothers hand and reap what you sow." We will continue to record and perform One Day in every major language in the world until the voice is heard as one. One Day. Maybe not tomorrow - but let us begin. If this resonates with you, read on.
