A new book examines one of the least-explored aspects of Dylan's art.

The Tibetan Freedom Concerts head to New York, where the team faces slow ticket sales, city bureaucracy, and the pressure of turning one breakthrough concert into something bigger. But even as the concert nearly breaks them, U2’s surprise appearance fulfills Erin’s teenage promise and helps carry the movement toward Washington, D.C.

This week on BAY MADE: Freedom Needs a Soundtrack. Thirty years ago, an unlikely group of artists, activists, and friends helped build the Tibetan Freedom Concerts into one of the largest concert series of the 1990s and a rallying cry for nonviolence, freedom, and Tibet. Freedom Needs a Soundtrack looks back at how the concerts began, what they changed, and what their legacy offers now.
