Playlist Description

Dec 10 is Human Rights Day. It reminds me of the 1986 efforts by Bill Graham, Amnesty International, Peter Gabriel, Sting, U2 and many others to draw attention to the issue of Human Rights with the Conspiracy of Hope tour. Here's a sampler of some of the artists who participated in the Conspiracy of Hope tour: Miles Davis, Joni Mitchel, Howard Jones... and other artists generally known advocates for worldwide human rights. There struggle continues, it seems. For more information, check out: http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/memorabilia/search/poster-art.html?t=AMNESTY or go to Amnesty.org
