With support from the California Arts Council, Alphabet Rockers, a fiscally sponsored organization of Sozo Impact and winner of the 2023 GRAMMY award for Best Children’s Album, will fund artists in delivering anti-racism music and dance concerts, workshops and curriculum to our communities.
Alphabet Rockers primary goals are to:
+ empower young people to be proud of their identities and feel powerful enough to change their world
+ model advocacy and intersectionality
+ challenge oppressive language and bias, and
+ give parents and educators starting points for meaningful conversations about challenging topics with children.
We do this through:
+ Performances, workshops and concerts
+ Music – original songs, centering diverse voices
+ Visual Media and digital curriculum
+ Keynotes
Our programs and services are co-directed by founders, Tommy Soulati Shepherd (he/him/they) and Kaitlin McGaw (she/her), and includes diverse multi-disciplinary hip hop artists from the Alphabet Rockers collective.
