a daylong festival propelling a new wave of progressive action, outside the RNC
On top of Michael Franti and Spearhead, Anti-Flag, Wookiefoot w/Matisyahu, I Self Devine, Indigo, and Tru Ruts performing at Ripple Effect, we are proud to announce the additions of B. Dolan and Prolyphic from Strange Famous Records and KnowMore.org
We have also confirmed two speakers throughout the day: Medea Benjamin (co-founder of CODEPINK and Global Exchange), as well as Will Steger (polar explorer and global warming activist).
Much more to be announced soon!

The fundraising campaign is underway! We’re on the streets, on the phone, on Facebook, and via email to make sure this event is as engaging, educational, and uniting as possible. Please follow the link to paypal and donate whatever you can. The cost of attendance to a for-profit event of this magnitude would easily be in the $40-60 range, so our suggested donation is a modest $20. If you will be able to attend, think of your donation as the price of admission. If you can’t attend, consider your donation a contribution to a powerful cause! Thanks so much already!
The Facebook fundraising campaign has set sail and we need you to help spread it as far and wide as possible. Please go to our Facebook campaign Donate what you can and spread it like wildfire!
To bring this all together, we are recruiting volunteers leading up to the event as well as day-of. For pre RIPPLE EFFECT, we are looking for help with various forms of promotion and day of we will need help with greening, hospitality, traffic control, informing attendees about all facets of the event, and so on. If you are interested in helping out, email katie@livewithsubstance.org
Thanks!
