Stay Human

I found Micheal Franti on Spotify a couple of years ago and wow. His music and messages always blow my mind. I recently lost a friend to suicide and Micheal's music really pulled my through and brought me to a better place myself Thank you for this podcast which reminds me that at the end of the day, we are all just humans and need to stay human A

so much wisdom on music, wellness, really everything! thanks, michael :)

I found Michael Franti through a review of someone writing about my music and comparing my message to his. Unfortunately, my music knowledge was not deep enough for me to discover Michael Franti. My mind is blown because I can now hear someone that I resonate with on my music journey. I Give Thanks to the Universe for my discovery of Michael Franti, his message and his podcast.

I was excited for this when I read this: The FOLLOW YOUR HEART tour is about listening to the voice inside you, being your authentic self, and building community, so together we can let go, dance, celebrate life, hit the reset button and walk out feeling a little bit taller!!! I was excited until I emailed the venue in Maine, closest to me regarding restrictions for your outdoor concert there on July 1. Discrimination is what I got in reply to my inquiry. I have been "following my heart", DEEPLY listening to the voice inside me (for all of my adult life actually), building community...but looks like doing so at concerts is still not an option for an individual like me. We have been starving for live shows by artists we love....starving to do what is in orange above, with one of my favorite artists and all of the beautiful people who attend...I have been at a few shows where you have pulled me and my daughters up on stage, hugged us, danced with us, and never for a second did I ever think you would want to not be near anyone in the HUMAN race. I'm deeply saddened to see that you're not actually doing what your statement says. I have wonderful memories of your shows and the fun times my daughters and I had together at them. I wish you blessings and peace and love, AND I wish for you to open your heart and mind to EVERYONE. You stand for freedom and love and inclusion. Or do you?
