“a riot is the language of the unheard” — martin luther king jr
this was recorded two years ago but i still feel like rioting, now more than ever before. i never shared this because i felt sick and tired in the performance— thanks to fannie lou hamer, i now realize that is part of its story. plus, the band was far too fire not to share! ❤️🔥
this song is riot by elyse. mlk commemorative lecture 2023. i’m finally working on a debut project with songs like this— hmu if you’d like to help!

“I Am a Man.”
A declaration. A demand. A refusal to be unseen.
Elyse reflects on the power of these four words and how their echoes still shape our understanding of identity, dignity, and justice.
