Happy Thanksgiving Week!
If you are one of the Americans dreading this holiday because of family, politics, or the wildly problematic things that will be said at the dinner table - have no fear - you can use the following guide from The Come Together Music Project as a way to use music to regain common ground.
If you find this useful I’d love to hear about it. Drop a comment below this article and let me know how it went. Better yet, download and share it with others. At the very least, you’ll close the weekend with a new playlist, and, if all goes according to plan, you’ll remember that people are the best part of gathering in the first place.
Additional notes
- It is fine if someone wants to skip a category
- Consider sending this PDF to people beforehand so they have time to pick songs. If you can’t send it around early, give everyone 10-15 minutes to think before starting (you might appreciate the quiet time).
- Designate a group “scribe” to write down all the songs and create a playlist to share after you finish
