SACRED Democracy: A Fundraiser for Sacred Acts

With our democracy under attack, join SACRED Acts for our annual fundraiser as we honor progressive leaders and build community power!

Honoring: Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (Illinois' 9th District) with the Mirza M Rab Award for Leadership Neha Gill, Executive Director of Apna Ghar, with the SACRED Acts Advocacy Award

Featuring performances by: Sangat: Afghan American rabab virtuoso Qais Essar and Sikh American trumpet player and singer Sonny Singh in a new project that obliterates musical, political, and religious boundaries. Drawing inspiration from hundreds of years old mystical poetry from the Sikh, Sufi, and radical bhakti traditions, their music centers oneness and connection in times of increasing division and hierarchy.
