Busboys and Poets and Bread & Roses Presents: DC Labor Chorus’ “A Few of Our Favorite Thingsâ€
Sing-a-long with the DC Labor Chorus, which has pulled a list of favorite songs from their repertoire of labor and social justice music just for Bread and Roses! You can also bring your own favorite song and share it during the open mic segment or just sit back and enjoy. Great fun for kids of all ages and, of course, audience participation is a big part of the fun! Plus, enjoy Busboys & Poets great food & drink.
Bread & Roses is a monthly labor series that features a variety of events focused on workers and organized labor. Each month brings a new topic through interactive discussions, film screenings, and performances. The hope for these events is that attendees walk away with a greater understanding of organized labor, its role in shaping history and current relevance. The name "Bread & Roses" was inspired by a poem/song written by James Oppenheim that appeals for both fair wages and dignified conditions.
Bread & Roses is held on the second Tuesday of every month at Busboys and Poets, Takoma
Free and open to all!
