Min. Louis Farrakhan releases new recordings

M.B. Miller

Minister Louis Farrakhan wants “to change the world.” His contribution to this effort is a collection of music, from classical to the blues, that has been developed with the collaboration of outstanding musicians of all ethnicities. While Farrakhan is well known as a fiery advocate for the rights and interests of blacks in America, he has also been acclaimed since his youth as a gifted musician.

Farrakhan is the consummate Roxbury man. In his youth he was recognized as the leading classical violinist of his age in Boston. His success brought pride to the community and opened residents to the spiritually salubrious impact of classical music, even as people forged ahead despite the impediment of racial discrimination.

Now Farrakhan is calling upon us all to put aside petty differences and coalesce “to change the world” and create the human utopia that is still not beyond our reach. Music has the power to change people’s attitudes. Contact lctwmusic.com or telephone 1-800-557-0676 to learn how you can participate and “Let’s Change The World.”
