DESCRIPTION:Justice Beats Virtual Festival and Fundraiser for COVID-19 Crisis 
 Relief\n\nSaturday, May 30, 2020 \n10 AM - 4 PM PT (1 PM - 7:00 Pm 
 ET)\n\nFestival Host/MC: The Peace Poets\n\nIt’s been a week of continued 
 heartbreak as we see systemic racism and violent policing take the lives of 
 George Floyd and Tony McDade. We are holding the families and communities 
 of these two men, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery,  and countless other Black 
 people who have been victims of racist police and vigilante terror in our 
 hearts.\n\nIt feels strange to be promoting a virtual music festival we are 
 co-hosting in the midst of such collective pain and heartbreak. But we also 
 know that the talented artists we are uplifting, and the groups we are 
 supporting, are fighting for a world where white supremacy is dismantled, 
 state violence is no more, and all of us are collectively free. \n\nSo we 
 hope you will join us on tomorrow, Saturday May 30 for JUSTICE BEATS:  a 
 virtual festival to benefit communities in urgent need. All day on 
 Saturday, we'll be amplifying musicians, DJs, and other artists working to 
 support their communities. \n\nTune in to hear amazing performers, learn 
 about the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on Indigenous, incarcerated, 
 houseless, undocumented, and Palestinian communities...and how you can 
 support the continued fight towards collective liberation in the face of 
 increasing repression.\n\nWe are looking forward to being in community with 
 others tomorrow and dancing as we find ways to process the pain we are all 
 feeling during these times. \n \nAll donations will benefit grassroots 
 organizations on the frontlines of the COVID-19 Crisis, 
 including:\n\n--American Indian Community House\n--Red de Pueblos 
 Transnacionales\n--Cosecha (Juarez/El Paso circle)\n--BLMP (Black LGBTQIA+ 
 Migrant Program)\n--Tent Mission STL\n--SONG (Southerners on New 
 Ground)\n--Dream Defenders\n--Health for Palestine\n--Palestine Grassroots 
 Distribution Project. \n\nORGANIZERS: \n\nJustice Beats is produced by a 
 coalition of organizations all of whom share a commitment to fighting for 
 justice and liberation through art and culture.\n\n--Adalah Justice 
 Project\n--Center for Constitutional Rights\n--Donkeysaddle 
 Projects\n--Eagle Project\n\nCo-sponsors include #DefendTheCriminalized,
