Known for her electrifying voice and fearless advocacy work, Grammy Award-winning singer Angélique Kidjo’s debut memoir Spirit Rising: My Life, My Music reveals the inspiring story of her journey from a little-known city in Benin, on the west coast of Africa, to international superstardom. At every step, Kidjo reinforces her faith in the power of music to create bonds of understanding between diverse people and overcome all forms of intolerance.
A book signing will follow the talk.
