WHO: Rock for Life, a project of American Life League, works with hundreds of bands and thousands of pro-life youth who use music as a means to engage, educate and equip our culture to be advocates for life. You will not silence my message, you will not mock my God, you will stop killing my generation.
WHY: In the last year, human personhood efforts, led by a new generation of pro-lifers have swept the nation as a radically reignited movement to restore respect for the human rights due each human person from his or her biological beginning. Eight states have formally launched human personhood amendment campaigns to their state constitutions and dozens more are organizing initiatives.
Rock for Life will bring together youth activists from across the nation to demand recognition of human rights for all human beings.
American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to death.
