Sing for Statehood - "Stand Up for D.C." E-mail

Every movement has its songs.  Now D.C. statehood has a wonderful new song to D.C.'s own unique go-go beat. The LCB Group, consisting of Glenn Leonard, Joe Coleman and Joe Blunt, former members of The Temptations, The Platters, and the Drifters, respectively, assisted by Ayanna Gregory, daughter of celebrated human rights activist and comedian Dick Gregory, debuted Stand Up for D.C. at January 7, 2012 benefit concert at the Carnegie Institution that was sponsored by the American Civil Liberties Union of the National Capital.  Stand Up for D.C. was written and produced by Joe Coleman and Moe Daniels. Leonard, Coleman and Blunt are D.C. natives and have known and worked with each other since they were children.  The Godfather of Go-Go, D.C.'s own Chuck Brown, received a special award from the ACLU-NCA for his work and support of D.C. statehood.

CDs of the song can be purchased from the ACLU-NCA (202-457-0800). A portion of the proceeds go to the ACLU-NCA, D.C. Statehood Fund. It can also be purchased from iTunes [http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/stand-up-4-d-c-single/id493572134].

"Stand up for D.C." on Saturday night

The D.C. statehood movement is getting a boost and a song of its own on Saturday night. "Stand up for D.C." will be performed at a benefit by the LCB Group, which features former members of legendary vocal groups the Temptations, Platters and Drifters.

"Civil rights activist Rev. Walter Fauntroy used to visit my home in D.C. when I was a child, so I was aware from a young age that D.C. doesn’t have voting rights,” said Joe Coleman, former lead singer for the Platters. “It’s a civil rights issue that’s very important to me."

The event is the D.C. Statehood Benefit Party, which will be two shows, 8 and 10 p.m., at the Carnegie Institution at 16th and P streets NW. Preceeding the music for those interested will be an educational program by the American Civil Liberties Union of the Nation's Capital. The session is designed to train volunteers how to lobby members of Congress on D.C. statehood, with a focus on getting more co-sponsors for the current statehood bill.

The "teach-in" is free. Tickets for the musical peformances are $50, or $100 to also attend a private reception.
