I thought this was way cool and it relates to music ;)
Spotted: Lady Gaga rocking a "Pass the DREAM Act" T-shirt!
She refused to boycott Arizona along with other musical artists, arguing that it was their duty to not fail their fans but rather make their voice heard and actively protest:
"I will not cancel my show. I will hold you, and we will hold eachother, and we will protest this state. Do not be afraid because if it wasn't for all of you immigrants, this country wouldn't have s**t. And I mean it. I mean it so deeply in my soul.
Tonight we will continue to actively protest social and political injustices in Arizona. We will sing, we will stand up, +we will be heard."
Now the question is where can I get myself one of these!?!
PS: For those unware, the DREAM Act is a piece of legislation that would provide students who were brought to the US at a young age, an opportunity to become legal productive members of this country upon completing a college degree or serving in the military. Find out more here! :)
