Executive Producer Djehuty Se Hotep said, “Your voice truly does matter. It is telling the story of accessing fair representation. The history of this nation to access fair representation through the voting process and Fannie Lou Hamer is a continuation of telling that story how she became the voice of the voiceless.”

The kickoff performance was the start of a twenty-city Florida tour.
