The Twin Cities Labor Chorus was started in January, 2009 with two organizers, and has grown to nearly 30 members. We sing music ranging from "The Little Red Song Book" to contemporary and original labor music.
Our mission is to empower the labor movement and reclaim protest and social justice music from the forces that would commodify it for profit. Also, to promote singing amongst union members and the public as a tool for building community and magnifying our collective power.
We sing in labor halls, at union events and rallies, in public spaces, and on picket lines. The labor chorus is free to join and open to anyone who has a passion for social justice and is willing to learn music in a communal setting.
