<div>✨ Help Bring My Music Into the World ✨
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My beautiful people!!! You might know me from my time in Connecticut, Wild Choir, Thrive East Bay, Saritah tours, Canticle Farm, or Green Gulch. It's been a pleasure supporting so many beautiful artists over the years, and I'm feeling like it's time for my voice to be in the mix.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This project has been years in the making, and I’m finally at a place where my songs are ready to be released. Music has always been my way of searching for truth—through love, curiosity, soul, and deep questions about life and connection. These songs are for people who are in love with life, who yearn for meaning, and who believe in the power of truth to transform everything. Community, rhythm, spirit, these are all so deeply woven in each song and Im praying that the more we sing these songs, the more we have community, rhythm and spirit!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thanks to the generosity of <a href="https://www.mamuse.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mamuse</a>, who chose me as the artist they wanted to support from their own fundraiser, I received a beautiful gift that helped me take the next step. More recently, I had the privilege of attending an artist residency in North Carolina, which gave me the grounding and time I needed to shape the music into its truest form. Now, I’m at the final stage: <strong>working with a mixing and mastering engineer to bring these songs to life with the polish and care they deserve.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I want to thank everyone who has consistently asked about my music and encouraged me to keep going. Your love has carried me through, and I’m so excited to finally share this work with you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ll be performing soon at Home Bass (downtown Oakland) and Canticle Farm (Fruitvale area)—please come out and support if you can! And if you feel moved to contribute here, <strong>your support will directly fund the final steps of bringing this music into the world.</strong>

<div><strong>I do not know how to thank you all enough! My perfectionism has been put down with the help of you all expressing your support and belief in my music. 2 songs are completely finished and 4 songs are in process! Mirrors has an amazing visual experience coming out with it and I'm so so excited to share that with you very soon. I'll keep updates going here so you know what's on the way. </strong>

Support Dyna Erie's Musical Dream

<div>Paul Redd left us on Juneteenth. A hero to so many, he was loved by so many communities: from his childhood friends in Oakland, to his family who has always been with him, to decades-long friendships from the inside, to the many friends he made in his two years home after 44 years of wrongful incarceration, including 30 in solitary. He will be remembered for his infinite love, his courage, strength, generosity, hope, his poetry, and passion for justice. We love you Paul!
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>The family welcomes your financial contributions for his funeral and burial, which happened on July 9th and were so beautiful, and now towards supporting his wife May in adjusting to her new life chapter. Thank you for any support you are able to offer. All funds going through Paul's nephew, Ugene Jackson.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here is a poem from Paul's book "Roaring Free in A World Without Walls"...
</div>

</div>
<div><strong>A Voice From Within</strong>
</div>

</div>
<div>Do you know
</div>
<div>the voice when
</div>
<div>i call to you?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Do i know the 
</div>
<div>voice when you
</div>
<div>call to me?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is a whisper
</div>
<div>A silent call!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is my call
</div>
<div>to go forward
</div>
<div>never backward.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is my voice
</div>
<div>for you to know
</div>
<div>with the words
</div>
<div>i speak for you
</div>
<div>to grow.

Paul Redd's Funeral Expenses

<br />To my community,<br /><br />I hope all of you reading this are in good health and spirits given the times we are living in. I write this as someone who’s very passionate about justice and believes in integrity and standing up strongly for what’s right. I am honored everyday to be able to serve my community and help build a brighter future that’s equitable for all to thrive in.<br /><br />For the past 8 months I’ve been a Project Manager at an Oakland chapter of a national non-profit that claims to serve women, people of color, immigrants, the formerly incarcerated, and low-income communities.<br /><br /><strong>It is very regrettable to announce that I was unjustly terminated Friday June 5th by this same social justice organization.</strong> My termination came days after I requested in an email, signed by co-workers, to all the staff requesting to have a conversation about racism and what’s happening due to #GeorgeFloyd.<br /><br /><br />On our nationwide all-staff video call the following day after my request was made, we were told that the entire call would be about racism. I was happy that we were the type of organization to hold these difficult conversations so we can learn and grow. However, I was singled out and scolded by management publicly, and my email that multiple people had signed with me was called “disgusting”. <strong>The Director of HR silenced me from speaking, put me on mute, and said “You have spoken enough.”</strong><br /><br /><strong>That call was on Wednesday and by Friday morning I was out of a job.</strong><br /><br />This unjust treatment and retaliation in the midst of COVID-19 and a social uprising,  from a national social justice organization that serves communities in every major city across the US, is extremely hurtful.<br /><br />I am coming to you as my community asking for support.<strong> I am now unemployed and have to provide for myself and my 5 year old.</strong> I am asking for anything you can give to help support us with basic needs and legal costs that may incur down the road as I fight this illegal firing.<br /><br />Some of you I may know, some of you I might not. I ask if you do know me, and you know the organization I am referring to, to please not speak on it yet.<br /><br />Trust and believe I am in<strong> no way</strong> protecting the identity of this organization that should be held accountable. However, I am trying to protect myself and my co-workers by approaching this the best way possible . I will speak on it in due time.<br /><br />Know that I will continue fighting for justice whether or not I am organizing from an office, or in the streets.
