Arlington High Principal Duane Fish says they are sharing this with anyone who will listen because it's a message that needs to be heard.
Choir Director Heidi Forslund says as they stand in solidarity against racism, this song is dedicated to black students, staff members and families in the community.
The AHS Flight Choir includes six members of the 2020 graduating class.
AHS is set to hold their virtual graduation June 18th.
