These Streets Are Holy (T.S.A.H.) is more than just a song – it is a rally cry for change. While specifically addressing Chicago gun violence, it is universal to anywhere in the entire world where a turn towards peaceful solutions are needed. Our manifesto reads: "We the people of Chicago and the surrounding communities, declare that the streets of these neighborhoods are ultimately under God's control and "These Streets Are Holy". We organize with the intention of creating a spiritual revival that, under the leadership of a loving God, will change the culture of drugs, violence and murder. In its place is hope and an actionable path toward change and a future worth living." One night, T.S.A.H. founder and songwriter John Ludwig awoke at 3 AM with the realization that the rampant violence in Chicago's streets WAS his issue too. He well understood that he was an upper middle class, upper middle aged white man, who grew up in a lily white suburb of St Louis in the 60s/70s, and now lives 100 blocks south of 'the problem'. However, he felt compelled to give a name to the peace undercurrent that has no name, and write a song expressing so. As the suburban streets slept, he got up and wrote the song: These Streets Are Holy. The chorus is a rally cry for change. These streets are holy, and we're taking them back These streets are holy, no more, no more These streets are holy, God says they are my own These streets are holy, and they're still our home John knew Anita from the Chicago Songwriters Collective and felt her voice, passion and desire for change would capture the deep emotions in the song. And does it ever! "These Streets Are Holy" says the solution must come from changing hearts - a change that can only happen once we reconnect and put the author of creation at his rightful place of first. Yes indeed, there is reason for hope, but only if we connect it with the Source of hope. Then can hearts be changed and those living without direction can find their way. We have so many other ideas and action items for the cause. Please support the cause and join us! Published on Easter Sunday. Hope on the day hope came to stay.
