Stand as One
This video was put together by three students from the Oakland School for the Arts. Anais Kane and Chetina Hunter are in the vocal emphasis, while Knia Ward is in the dance department. The original song and choreography in the video were inspired by their study of women through the exhibition "Women, Power and Politics" by the International Museum of Women. This song and the interpretive dance is an empowerment piece for women; it encourages women to use their power and fight for their goals.
| (Anais) ooh... I am a mother I am a woman I am a human (yea) Fighting for life In the distance is the light We must continue to fight Whether we win or lose We've got to take control In order to reach new heights (Chetina) We stand as one Mistaken for someone Who is weak And can never be Equal to what's mighty We work entirely As hard as a male Finally we prevail Yea, now we're on top yeah |
I.M.O.W. partnered with Liza Gesuden, a teacher at Oakland School for the Arts, and her Senior Honors English class to create an Education Pilot Program that focused on the museum's exhibition, "Women, Power and Politics," for a five week unit. Engaging exhibition stories as course texts, students organized in-class presentation, discussed central topics explored by the exhibition and worked on assignments inspired by the exhibition.
