“Though I am representing Let's Build Great Things! as an educator, a choice of music is always personal, so while I may have educational goals, this is also the music I listen to when I'm far away from home. Much like myself, many of the artists I have chosen live away from the home they identify with. Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that they are drawn to music of their roots and traditions, rekindling it while spinning it in a contemporary light. The order of the music can be read easily in terms of emotion, with the emotional tones gradually changing as the playlist progresses.”

-Ranitri Weerasuriya, volunteer teacher at Let’s Build Great Things!
