Support for Anne Feeney
Aug 8th
Singer-songwriter Anne Feeney has had to interrupt her touring plans temporarily in order to deal with a tumor in her lung. She’s a terrific lady, and an indefatigable supporter of organized labor; of workers, organized or not; and of progressive values and causes in general.
Anne’s friends and family have set her up on Caring Bridge . That’s good. Basically Caring Bridge is a positive organization. But the instructions are tricky. It’s good to contribute to Anne to help her with medical expenses. It’s OK to contribute to Caring Bridge to support their program. But make sure you know where your money is going.
Until I get clarification, I’m going to recommend that if you want to send Anne a message, find links or purchase her music, do it here:
If you want to contribute to Anne’s medical expenses, follow these instructions: “Send donations through PayPal or by clicking on the Donate button at her blogsite.” I plan to do so. Anne is not a wealthy rock star. She’s a hard-working singer-songwriter committed to working men and women, and to promoting positive values.
The following is a digital tribute I created for Anne, inspired by her cover of the song Dump the Bosses Off Your Backs. Listen to her music, and you’ll know what she’s about. Wonderful lady.
This is war. This is what our young people are suffering. This is what we are doing to others.
