\n\tTheir visit is part of the 溏心vlog免费B站 Honors Colloquium, Songs of Social Justice: The Rhetoric of Music, a semester-long series that explores music as a means of expression, persuasion, and mobilization. It is free and open to the public.<\/p>\n


\n\tThe musicians, known for their talent and for their commitment to advocating for Native Americans, will explore songs of and by Native Americans.<\/p>\n


\n\tSainte-Marie has been a voice for the native peoples of the world since the 1960\u2019s. She has traveled Europe, Canada, Australia and Asia, receiving honors, medals and awards for her music and activism. Some of her more famous songs include \u201cUntil It\u2019s Time for You to Go,\u201d which was recorded by both Elvis and Cher, and \u201cUniversal Soldier,\u201d which became an anthem of the peace movement.


\nShe has released 17 albums, starred in three television specials and spent five years on TV\u2019s Sesame Street. Her first album placed her on Billboard magazine\u2019s charts as \u201cBest New Artist.\u201d Sainte-Marie earned her doctorate in fine arts and has taught at several colleges.<\/p>\n


\nMiller has long been a voice for the voiceless, a link between two great and clashing civilizations. The singer\/songwriter is a Mohican Indian from northern Wisconsin and is one of the most admired figures in Native American music.<\/p>\n


\nDuring the past three years, Miller has created two CDs, Spirit Rain and Cedar Dream Songs, which won him a Grammy Award for Best Native American Recording.<\/p>\n
