A fun little town called Carthage, Mississippi

The kids of today's Mississippi delta are healing their past through a universal language of song. Except these days the singing voices are of all shapes, sizes, and colors, and the barriers between people by old divides are melting away.

Historically, here was the commonly overlooked birthplace of the gospel and Blues music that emerged into the R&B and the Motown and even Rock n Roll Rolling Stone influence, passed down to a new age of Millenials youths...right in Carthage, MS

You recall "sweet home chicago"...where blues hit the big labels...and the underground delta Blues down on the Mississippi gulf was sort of trapped in the African American gospel churches where performances did not generally get the mainstreet appeal...for it rather took journeys north to old Chicago to get viral blues heard by all...(like this)

Well today, it's the hammer of Justice, bell of freedom, and brotherly/sisterly love right in Carthage Mississippi...but right in the classrooms that were non-existent 40 years ago
Today's atmosphere of a 6th grade classroom in the little town of Carthage, MS goes something like this.

And when these kids grow older, you will finally have an equality in the muddy waters that have never before been seen
