NHCC CHOIRS
BLACK MUSIC MATTERS
NHCC Choirs explore the cultural impact of Black musicians while learning songs from various Black traditions. Additionally, students engaged in critical conversations about the influence institutions and organizations– ranging in scope from the Disney Company to the Justice Choir movement– have on our perceptions of the value of Black art, culture, art, and life in the United States.

NHCC IN SOLIDARITY: Our Commitment To Racial Equity:
North Hennepin Community College stands firm against racism and all forms of human oppression. The circumstances surrounding the deaths of Mr. George Floyd and Mr. Daunte Wright, both unarmed African American men, and the Atlanta shootings targeting Asian women, are deplorable. As a college committed to racial equity, we acknowledge the trauma that these incidents cause all of us. As a community, we recognize the fullness of human value and reinforce our commitment to truth, racial healing and transformation.
While higher education alone cannot solve all societal forms of racism, oppression, and trauma, we do serve as an institution of higher learning and civic engagement. As such we will continue to work toward illuminating systems of racial inequity within our own community so that together we can continue dismantling all forms of oppression that adversely affect our community of students. We extend our deepest condolences to the Floyd family.
