The Non Believer's Prayer (December 2020)
A Kevin Harris composition
With the 4th and final installment of 'Words and Vibrations', Harris is presenting his own composition performed virtually with some of his most creative and innovative colleagues.
The title 'Non believer's Prayer' is seemingly contradictory. But we all have moments of doubt, and in those moments, we are unbelievers. This music composition and video is a call to look through the difficulties we may face and still imagine and act upon how we can make things better.
If you find inspiration from this composition, please pass that supportive energy forward.

It’s an invitation to consider in what ways American citizens' rights to justice and equality have advanced or regressed.
