Brandi Carlile: "these atrocities are happening right here, right now"
http://www.halftheskymovement.org/30-songs-30-days/
"It is an absolute honor to be part of the Half the Sky Movement. The fight to end the oppression of women and girls worldwide should not be a 21st century battle. Sex trafficking, forced prostitution and gender-based violence are civil rights violations and these atrocities are happening right here, right now, to our sisters, mothers and daughters. Please join me in this movement for change, turning oppression into opportunity for women worldwide."
