The album features songs covering day-to-day topics such as food and love to more worldly ideas such as police brutality and class divisions. Yuri Kochiyama is one of the namesake song on the Scholars’ album, a tribute to the Japanese American human rights activist, her values, and her work.

The tour will begin in Vancouver, Canada on September 14 and will travel throughout the States with a final performance in NYC on November 11. For the complete list of tour dates, visit their website.
