PeaceSongs CNY



Music has been at the center of social movements around the world and has the power to educate, inspire and unify. The Syracuse Peace Council asked Central New Yorkers to tap into this power by submitting songs related to peace and social justice to be considered for a place on a CD entitled PeaceSongsCNY.

We have selected 12 songs so far for the CD. An additional four songs will be selected via community polling happening in conjunction with the Syracuse New Times. Voting will continue until Jan. 15.

Check out the songs which have already been selected.

Info from the original solicitation for songs...

Not only we are in a time of war and unrest, but local violence continues to plague our community. This is your chance to turn up the volume on peace and take part in shaping a more harmonious future. What message do you have to encourage peace and change?

Have your voice heard.

Send in your submission to be considered for PeaceSongsCNY.
