Dear John,
As part of our new Artists and Activism podcast series, we've talked with more than two dozen artists who are using their music and voices to stand up for causes they believe in. Over the past two weeks the following new episodes have dropped. Take a listen!
Episode Two: Activist Storytelling [[link removed]] Hear from artists using storytelling to engage with important social and political issues. Listen to Farm Aid board artist Margo Price, Kyshona and Tami Neilson; as well as Stephen Duncombe, co-founder of the Center for Artistic Activism, who gives us background on how artists use storytelling to tap into emotion — a visceral response that moves others to act.
Episode Three: Artist Ag-tivists [[link removed]] Listen to artists who come from farming backgrounds and have joined Farm Aid over the years to stand up for family farmers. First the legendary bluesman, Taj Mahal, joins us and then Cassandra Lewis, Waylon Payne and Charley Crockett explain how their musical lives are deeply intertwined with their love of the land and commitment to farmers.

There are still tickets to Farm Aid 40! [[link removed]] You won't want to miss being part of this all-day celebration of music and family farmers. Not to mention a chance to eat the incredible, family farm-identified, local and organic foods that make up HOMEGROWN Concessions® and to visit our HOMEGROWN Village to explore hands-on activities, hear farmers and artists talk about pressing issues and attend demos to learn new skills.
It's all taking place Saturday, September 20, at Huntington Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Will we see you there?
