Oak City Move Episode 4

This week’s Oak City Move episode featured Jon Lindsay of the NC Music Love Army, who came in to discuss his new project, Calling 100 Counties. Calling 100 Counties will work to connect NC-based bands to local legislators, to facilitate flow of information between the people of North Carolina and their representatives. 

OCM also spoke with William Paul Thomas about his art, fighting stereotypes in the media of black men with his project TEEF, and the showing for his current work, Bricks Need Mortar. The event will be held at Anchorlight, a new creative space in Southeast Raleigh, at 4pm this Saturday (2/25).
