A young Aretha Franklin captivates her community with the song "Respect" during the height of the Civil Rights Movement, in this striking biography that will embolden today's young listeners to sing their own truth.
When Aretha Franklin sang, she didn't just sing…she sparked a movement. As a performer and a civil rights activist, the Queen of Soul used her voice to uplift freedom fighters and the Black community during the height of the 1960s Civil Rights Movement. Her song "Respect" was an anthem of identity, survival, and joy. It gave hope to people trying to make change. And when Aretha sang, the world sang along.
With Hanif Abdurraqib's poetic voice, Sing, Aretha, Sing! demonstrates how one brave voice can give new power to a nation, and how the legacy of Aretha Franklin lives on in a world still fighting for freedom.
