About Sound Off: Music for Bail
Inspired by the work of abolitionist leaders such as Dr. Angela Davis, Dr. Cornel West, and Ruth Wilson Gilmore, as well as the rise of organizations such as The Bail Project and the Marshall Project, Sound Off: Music for Bail seeks to break the silence around the prison-industrial complex (the PIC, for short) with an unexpected weapon: Western classical music.
