WRJ's Social Justice Anthem
WRJ Social Justice Anthem
In October 2022, WRJ announced our new social justice anthem, "Another Thing Coming," written by singer-songwriter Kyra Goldman. When asked about her inspiration for this song, she said, "I wanted to create an anthem where you could actually feel the energy of an army of women marching together in power. While writing, I thought of my mom and imagined her strength behind me."
Download the sheet music and teach it during an upcoming sisterhood event.
