Seven Last Words of the Unarmed

October 12, 2017 by Kurt Bedell

Michael Brown. Trayvon Martin. Oscar Grant. Eric Garner. Kenneth Chamberlain. Amadou Diallo. John Crawford.

These African-American men–each killed by police or by authority figures–are the subject of a powerful multi-movement choral work — Seven Last Words of the Unarmed — that will be part of the Portland Gay Men's Chorus What Unites Us concert this Sunday afternoon.

This is a powerful and important work, especially in these times. The Chorus is proud to be collaborating with 10 area non-profits who will benefit from concert proceeds.

Hope to see you there.
