Sojourner Truth’s ideals of freedom, equality and faith live on in the joyful young voices of Battle Creek’s Sojourner Truth Choir.
This gospel choir is open to Battle Creek school children age 7 and up. There is no tuition. The choir is directed by Pauline Norris.
Among the choir’s many notable performances was the Kellogg Foundation’s 75th anniversary celebration in 2005, when the choir shared the stage with South Africa’s Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm.
The choir originated in city-wide celebrations, begun in 1997, of the 200th anniversary of Sojourner Truth’s birth. In 2001, the choir became a part of the Music Center’s tuition-free after school program, IMPACT.
