Goapele Receives Activism Award
right Known almost as much for her political activism as for her smooth voice and groove-driven music, the singer will accept the award on September 12 during the Center’s 10th Anniversary Celebration, “Tribute to the Dream.”
“It is truly an honor to be honored by members of the community that have worked tirelessly for over a decade to build a future that we can actually look forward to,” said the singer, who began her career singing at rallies and demonstrations in the Bay area.
Goapele recently wrapped up a US concert tour and is headed to London, where she will perform on August 19 with Angie Stone and Anthony Hamilton.
