M is for Music

Today is ABC Wednesday and 'M' is for 'music'. Local musician Laurelyn Dossett makes beautiful music! Laurelyn performs weekly at Lucky 32 Restaurant. Each Tuesday, in addition to their regular menu, Lucky 32 serves up a traditional, southern meal of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, cornbread, and collards. Nothing goes with fried chicken better than Laurelyn's clear voice and acoustic music. Laurelyn has gained national attention for her local projects, grounded in the lore of North Carolina. 

In the above photo, Laurelyn, Scott Manring and Molly McGinn are performing the "Vote Against Amendment One" song. Listen to it  here on Monkeywhale Productions' website. From Rabbi Guttman to Mayor Robbie Perkins to restaurateurs Mr. and Mrs. Quaintance, many prominent citizens of Greensboro appeal to voters to vote against Amendment One on May 8th. Read about Amendment 1 here.

I'd happily vote against Amendment One! Those who carp most about freedom don't seem to really believe in it!

Absolutely love the song, so much so that I put it on Facebook. Music often reaches people when just words might not.

Thanks so much for sharing.

The worsing of Amendment One contains language that would affect ALL unmarried couples both straight and gay. Laws pertaining to child custody rights,domestic violence protiections, medical and financial decisions of ALL unmarried couples,removes partner benefits for many municipal workers. Gay marriage in North Carolina is already against the law. Writing discrimination into the State Constitution is wrong.

A great way to promote a message. Seems a draconian amendment, what happened to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Sure hope my sister and niece are voting NO! BAD law.
