The DC Labor Chorus has been active this year in supporting efforts to slow down the Federal Administration’s attacks on federal workers,
women, immigrants, people of color or in our LGBTQ+ community and other marginalized communities. You’ve seen us on the picket lines, at labor rallies, and many community event spaces. Join us for an evening of labor movement songs from the past and present, as well as special performances by our guest performers Black Workers Center Chorus & Freedom Futures Collective.
