Message From Erica Gimpel - One Billion Rising


"Hello Beautiful People,

This Valentine's Day is it my honor to be sharing 3 of my songs in the historic world event ONE BILLION RISING! 

ONE BILLION RISING is a global activist movement, V-DAY, was founded 14 years ago by Tony award winner... Eve Ensler, and has continued to gain the support of politicians, artists, writers, celebrities, thinkers and non-profit organizations, such including the Greater LA Chapter (USCN) for UN Women. 



The ‘V’ in V-Day stands for Victory, Valentine and Vagina. 

ONE BILLION RISING is a global strike. An invitation to dance. A call to men and women to refuse to participate in the status quo until rape and rape culture ends. A call to action, in lieu of the fact that one in three women on this planet will be raped or beaten in her lifetime. An act of solidarity, demonstrating to women the commonality of both their struggles and their power in numbers. A refusal to accept violence against women and girls. A revolution of one billion women joining together on the same day. 

This campaign has reached millions of activists in 160 countries and together on Valentine's Day we will RISE! 

When and Where: Thursday, February 14th @ 8PM The Joint 1771 West Pico Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90035 

There will be dancers and 3 music sets... I will be sharing 3 of my songs... Plus 2 different DJ's will be spinning in between the sets so we can all dance! 

 Hope to see you there! 

 Peace, 
 Erica"
