Extremism to radical kindness | Angie Haze | TEDxAkron
Maybe the extremism we see in the world today is exactly what is needed to inspire us to do something differently. Maybe we need to remember who and what we are. Angie Haze isn’t just a singer-songwriter; she’s a sonic architect, a storyteller who bends time and genre with her evocative sound. An award-winning, queer-fronted act, Haze crafts music for the survivor—giving voice to those who have endured childhood sexual abuse and sexual violence. Her songs are anthems of resilience, a call to the unheard, and a force for change.
