“My politics and music are a push for compassion and always have been. It’s not about pointing at someone and saying, ‘You’re wrong,’” she says. “More like, ‘This has been my life experience as a black woman who is lesbian in America. It’s a view you probably don’t hear a lot, and maybe you should take a look at what’s going on outside your backyard.’”

her dreams are. Hear what she has been doing and what her plans are for “The Black Eyed Susans”, “Queerstock” and “Rock for Youth” which are some of the many musical projects she is doing.
