This music video was filmed at the historic 16th Street Train Station in Oakland, California. Built in 1912 as the terminus of the Transcontinental Railroad, the station stands in the heart of West Oakland, a neighborhood rich with culture and resilience. Its walls have borne witness to generations of Black history, from the Great Migration to the present day.
These visuals are an invitation to discover beauty amid chaos. In this moment, the only way we don’t lose ourselves, or each other, is by holding fast to our hope, our joy, our beauty, our faith, our humanity, and our creativity.
