“If you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.” – Heather Heyer
Since adopting two young kids a couple years ago and taking on full-time daddy duties, I’ve been on an unexpected creative hiatus — and I mention that in verse 2 of my new song…
“Heather Heyer” is a personal song, as I find myself struggling amidst the madness that has overtaken this country. But “Heather Heyer” is also a political song: it’s a BIG Fuck You to Donald Trump and, more importantly, a tribute to Heather, who was run over and killed in Charlottesville.
This song is a rallying cry. You don’t have to be a masked member of ANTIFA or Anonymous to know that all of us who want social justice and racial equality here are up against a dangerous and strengthening enemy. (Nazi Punks Fuck Off!)
As Heather’s mom, Susan Bro, said at her daughter’s memorial (and as you’ll hear in the intro to my song):
“They tried to kill my child to shut her up. Well guess what? You just magnified her.”
Help me help Susan (and Heather) by taking a listen and spreading the word (by sharing on social, posting on your blog, playing on your radio show, playing for your friends, etc).
100{4e6932a869a7dc6e53218b6c4700540ba226cfd2b19b5c8dbd46dbf9a28a9134} of the proceeds from this song will be donated to The Heather Heyer Foundation, founded by Susan to help fund future social justice activists.
