A collection of r&b, soul, jazz, pop, world and gospel songs by Berklee College of

Music students and staff to raise awareness of the plight of women and children

affected by the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the Darfur region of Sudan.

We Are All Connected is the culmination of a collaborative effort engaging many members of the Berklee community. A delegation of Boston women traveled to the Sudan with Mercy Corps where the group heard firsthand accounts of the violence that has killed hundreds of thousands and displaced millions to camps. These stories inspired the group to take action to produce a full-length CD.
