With a Twitter egg preparing to be sworn in as President, a vast array of musicians have come out in support of America's most vital civil rights organizations and charities over the last two weeks. Ad-Rock has designed a sneaker to benefit Planned Parenthood, Run for Cover records have made their entire catalog "pay what you like" with all proceeds going to the non-profit, and The World is a Beautiful Place… backed up their label with a single to benefit the American Civil Liberties Union.
