Gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender advocates The Human Rights
Campaign have taken a bold step in supporting the Democratic vote in the 2008 presidential election. The group has organized an awareness-raising concert featuring Melissa Etheridge that will be held in Denver during this year’s Democratic National Convention.
Rock to Win at the DNC features Etheridge at her best, performing her classic folk-rock songs at the event. Also featured will be a special screening of the new Gus Van Sant-directed film “Milk,” about the assassination of former San Francisco city supervisor Harvey Milk, who worked tirelessly to promote GLBT rights. According to IMDB.com, Sean Penn has been cast in the title role, with Josh Brolin and Diego Luna in supporting roles.
This event is aimed at making a change in the current political climate and help gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgender people live as freely and openly as anyone else.
“All of America, and the world at large, has so much at stake in this year’s election,” said Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese in a press release for the event. “Four years ago, GLBT issues were used by the right wing in an attempt to distract and manipulate voters, and we vowed to fight those forces and continue to educate the electorate on the road to equality. We have largely succeeded in reshaping the political landscape. ‘Rock to Win’ is a celebration of our growth and progress, and a grand kickoff to hard work ahead in the general to elect a new president of our nation.”
