WASHINGTON, -- Jewel, Paula Cole and others will be performing at Madison Square Garden to raise money for Zero Population Growth (ZPG), an organization that promotes abortion as a means to "decrease population rates."
The concert, entitled A History of Women in Rock will be held on January 25th, three days after the 26th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, the decision that legalized abortion on demand.
Pro-life advocates are calling for a boycott of the two musicians.
Other than most artists in the Christian music inustry, mainstream musicians who are pro-life and should be supported include: Ben Folds Five, The Cranberries, King's X, and the Galactic Cowboys.
