Eli Lieb #WERISE

Openly gay singer/songwriter Eli Lieb decided he wanted  to make something to help people to continue feeling empowered and hopeful after the enormous success of the Women’s March on Saturday.  So he created this wonderfully moving video from a montage of clips from the March and why it was so necessary, and based it on Maya Angelou’s truly uplifting poem Still  I Rise  

Lieb writes  The way Maya Angelou speaks made it so easy for me to make this song around her inspiring words. Everyone has a way to help heal and empower, music is my way and I hope this helps. Find yours and together #WERISE.    Watch and share.

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.
