Dm Lawrence, The Humanitarian Afro-rights Activist

The American Caste Story is an "underground railroad" map of America's apartheid system. DM Lawrence's debut "mixtape" and concept album that operates as an autobiographical statement about society and social systems' impact on DaQuan, as well as a dialogue between DaQuan and the world about the very same social systems and society. Furthermore, the album explores systemic issues that relate to social, economic, and political conditions, using jazz as a motif to depict the current state of affairs for members of the African diaspora and the world at large.
