As Fall Semester's Spring Break 2020 comes to a close we reflect on the shared ideas presented by the participants of this project. How, as global citizens, do we shape the world to represent values of autonomy, mutuality, sustainability, and peace? Sometimes, engaging in these types of thought exercises can be emotionally and mentally straining.  

In order to uphold productive dialogues and creative pursuits in the face of adversity, it is necessary to find ways to maintain internal balance and focus. Music has a unique ability to comfort, console, energize and motivate. With that in mind, I put together the following collection of songs to capture attitudes of relaxation, humor, joy, compassion, and resistance. While the conditions of the current situation can be anxiety-inducing, I agree with Sean in the song "Sorry Bro"; you've got the charm and the skills to rise above.
