Many Rivers to Cross Music and Arts Festival

From the venue:

The first ever Many Rivers to Cross festival boasts a tagline: “A Festival of Music, Art, and Justice,” which adds a philanthropic angle to Atlanta’s festival season. Conceived by singer, songwriter, actor, and social activist Harry Belafonte, and overseen by the social justice organization Sankofa, Many Rivers packs a heavy list of socially and politically engaged performers converging on Chattahoochee Hills for two days (Oct. 1-2) of raising spirits and awareness about the country’s current climate of racial injustice. Public Enemy, T.I., Carlos Santana, Dave Matthews, Goapele, Estelle, Chris Rock, and many more are lined up to throw down in the name of rising above America’s human rights issues.
