Piece By Piece

The Fight for Freedom (original)
Composition and piano by Raisa Gandi Putri
June 16, 2018

This is the first time that I cried while composing music.

I recently took an American history course in college, and what I learned there really moved me to compose this piece. 

As an Indonesian, I had just learned that African Americans endured over a century of struggle to gain equal standing as a white person. This piece tells a story about African Americans from a time of slavery and the Civil War, to a century of slaughter, discrimination, and segregation, until finally, they united to fight for freedom in the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. 

I have also learned about the struggle of women. Albeit all our achievements to fight for equal rights, we are still striving to have equal rights as men.

The fight for equal rights isn’t over, and we shall not give up. So with this piece, I intend to bring hope to everyone fighting for equal rights.
