Tina Jensen of The Glamz Fame Holds 'Stronger Together' Benefit for ACLU

EDGE READ TIME: 2 MIN.

As millions across the nation wring their hands and ask, "What do we do now," Tina Jensen, formerly of The Glamz, answers the plea with�"Stronger Together: A Musical Celebration Of Unity" and benefit for the American Civil Liberties Union.�

"Like countless others, I moved to NYC to seek a freedom of expression I couldn't experience in small-town America. Many things have changed since then for the better, but in light of the recent election I'm afraid the U.S. could once again be heading down a dangerous path," said Jensen. "Having worked tirelessly for years performing across the country in support of LGBT rights and body positivity, I realized I could call on my cultural family of performers and that together we could raise awareness and support an organization that has been supporting people like us for almost 100 years."

With more than one million members, activists, and advocates, the ACLU serves as the nation's guardian of liberty -- working in courts, legislatures, and communities to defend the individual rights and liberties promised by the Constitution and the laws of the United States. They have fought to guarantee full equality for LGBT people, establish new privacy protections in the digital age of widespread government surveillance, end mass incarceration, and preserve both voting and abortion rights. The goal of Stronger Together is to raise $1,000 in support of the ACLU's efforts.
