Soul over mind. Community over conflict. Music over silence. That's the mission of the award-winning Twin Cities Community Gospel Choir. Led by Robert Robinson (front and center), the group includes singers of all backgrounds who come together to celebrate the rich tradition of African American gospel music. The group inspires audiences to clap their hands, stomp their feet, and lift their voices in song.
