For me, nothing does that better that the powerful spiritual medium of music. So, In light of the Kwanzaa principle of faith, here are 7 songs that resonate with Imani that we hear often. This countdown is in no particular order, because I love them all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-midnight-gradient-background has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-d4f0e57bae8ec4ee0cb624e113a1d6aa\">#1 Sounds of Blackness &#8211; The Lord with Make a Way<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-midnight-gradient-background has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-02d2c60138e07af7e28f17385cd6a200\">Where gospel meets blues&#8230;so genius.

You can hear the sorrow and triumph in equal measure in Mr. Hathaway&#8217;s voice. It speaks to collective faith  in our freedom as a people, even though we must individually choose to walk tall. Doing so in the face of opposition lets the Universe know that you trust it.
