AJ Rafael Presents “Music Speaks” – 8/28 & 8/29
Why?
AJ Rafael:
“Music Speaks” has an important mission, aiming to spread awareness about Autism, and encourage action that would improve the conditions of the lives and families that it affects.
A personal experience that inspired this goal is when my nephew, Nathan, was diagnosed with Autism when he was about two years old. Despite his condition, Nathan is a loving, fun, and active child who is very responsive to all of us, and is born with the love of music and dance. The more we love and watch over Nathan as he grows older, the more frustrating it can be knowing that his peers will never fully understand his situation, and these misunderstandings could lead to prejudice and pain for him throughout his life.
“Music Speaks” means utilizing the gifts of Music and Dance to inspire those fortunate enough to be born without autism to speak out for those who were, by being aware of their condition and taking action towards improving their living conditions and perhaps even uncovering the mystery behind its cause.
