Nobody Knows: (Un)Muted Voices

USC Visions and Voices

The 43rd Annual USC Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Bing Theatre

In celebration of the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we are excited to present Nobody Knows: (Un)Muted Voices. Following up on the first iteration of Nobody Knows at the GRAMMY Museum, Nobody Knows: (Un)Muted Voices is inspired by the first two words of the Negro spiritual, “Nobody Knows (The Troubles I’ve Seen).” To highlight the challenges and triumphs of those walking silently in the shadows, USC Thornton School of Music professor <a href="https://music.usc.edu/ronald-c-mccurdy/" title="https://music.usc.edu/ronald-c-mccurdy/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Ronald C.
