What a truly inspiring evening of music for justice—an all-star band, exceptional vocalists, and the music of civil rights icon, Nina Simone, in support of JusticeAid’s 2023 grantee partner, Black Voters Matter.

A huge thank you to our ticket buyers, table hosts, Host committee, and event sponsors ESPN Films and Miller Chevalier Chartered, along with donors like you, whose contributions are fueling the fight against racist voter suppression.
