REVEREND BILLY AND THE STOP SHOPPING GOSPEL CHOIR COME TO THE BAY AREA!

Don’t miss the Reverend and the Choir's visit to San Francisco City Hall where they'll perform and encourage the city's leaders to pass the nation's strongest sweatshop-free ordinance and Fair Trade/Organic law. June 6 at 11:30 am.
