O Lord, How Excellent Is Thy Name

Author's Note: I am currently a member of The Kuumba Singers, a student singing group, which was created in 1970 (1) to celebrate the creativity and spirituality of black culture, (2) as a safe space for black students on campus, and (3) to leave a space better than you found it. I hesitated to put this up, but the group is too much a part of my life not to share. I only ask that, in reading what I write about Kuumba, you remember that no group is monolithic. I do not presume to speak for anyone.

This semester, I joined The Sisters of Kuumba, the female a capella subset of The Kuumba Singers. Here we are performing "Holy, Holy, Holy." (More for audio than for video...)
