What do you get when you ask a sociologist and a new media theorist and artist to contribute to your project? Visual Sociology, of course. Briefly: The Healing Blues is a community based project spearheaded by Greensboro College that partners local musicians, artists, and philanthropists with individuals from the homeless community in order to share their experience, strength and hope. The Healing Blues Vol 1 tells the stories of 13 individuals, all different yet somehow the same; joined together through the messages of humanity, hope, and love expressed in their songs. Proceeds from the Healing Blues Project will go to the Interactive Resource Center, a community based outreach and resource provider, in Greensboro, North Carolina. The Musicians donated their performances to the project, and the homeless storytellers, as co-authors of the songs, will receive a share of the royalties.
