Composer Omar Thomas remembers never playing music in concert band that celebrates Black traditions while he was growing up. He has made it his mission to create music that speaks directly to the issues of representation, social consciousness and liberation. His works aim to honor the legacy and memory of all marginalized people in the United States.
