Alex Harris, well known around the Bay Area for his singing and musical talents, recently penned a song for these trying times.
With “Black Lives Matter” all around us, he felt compelled to write a song. It’s called “Humanity,” and he performed it recently on a local TV station. (Photos by Julia Jackson)
