Honoring Mercedes Sosa (1935-2009)

Posted on: Wednesday, October 7, 2009

Keywords: Latin America & Caribbean, Human Rights Advocacy

Mercedes Sosa died on October 4, 2009 and with her passing the world lost a great lady. She wrapped her soul, her heart, her humanity, her uncompromising commitment to justice around songs which she shared with all of us. Her spirit will nourish many generations as we continue to fight for the world we deserve. Gracias Mercedes. Gracias por darnos tanto.  Mercedes Sosa. Presente!
