"Freedom Sings" is a celebration of free speech through music - combining narration, multi-media elements and live musical performances hosted by Ken Paulson, executive director of the First Amendment Center and host of public television's "Speaking Freely." Respected singers and songwriters, including Bill Lloyd and Jonell Mosser, join him on-stage. Through songs and stories, "Freedom Sings" explores the history of music censorship in America from confiscated songs in 1735 to present-day music, including rock 'n' roll, rap and social anthems.
