Free to Be … You and Me: An Ageless Anthem

Free To Be ... You and Me was our generation's manifesto, played in every household and every classroom across the nation until we all knew that it was all right to cry, and mommies are people, and Atalanta didn't have to get married if she didn't want to. Join us for a deep dive on the album's origin story and take our hands, come along as we r-u-u-u-u-u-n-n-n-n with our own thoughts and feelings about our favorite songs and stories. Which lyrics made Kristin cry real tears ON THE AIR? And, 50 years later, how far do you think we've come? You might be surprised at some of the responses!

*This is an encore presentation of Episode 55 with an all new opening conversation about the timeless importance of this anthem (and all the songs on the album), as we prepare to head to Amherst, MA for the “Free To Be” exhibit at The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art.
