🚨New Music 🚨
“Plea Of St. Luke” was written at a time when the rights of many Americans were being stripped away, and although I wrote this song in 2019 and the issues at hand have evolved, we are still seeing that basic human rights are at risk in this country. In 2019 it was the trend of state Governors who were limiting women’s access to healthcare and then later the laws stripping Trans Americans of their basic dignity. This year it was the invasion of ICE into so many communities around the U.S. We have a duty to honor and respect the humanity of all people living in our beautiful and messy home, and although our leaders may fail us, we can’t fail each other ✌🏻❤️
