"'African Holocaust' comes to Copper"

COPPER MOUNTAIN - The beat of Steel Pulse thrives on positivity and spirituality, mostly based in the Rastafarian tradition.

The band's latest album, "African Holocaust," throbs with an evocative and inspiring tribute to the struggles of African descendants in the past 700 years.

"We search the past, because if you don't know how something happened, you can't fix it," Hinds said. "Black history is not just some tale told by the victors because there are still too many victims, and you can't re-invent what's still going on."
