New Amnesty International Small Places Tour Launched
LONDON, Sept. 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Amnesty International's new Ambassador of Conscience honoree, Peter Gabriel, and former recipient, U2's The Edge, attended the launch of the organization's Small Places Tour today in London. The event, held at the Hard Rock Cafe, outlined a preliminary list of 545 Small Places concerts (that could grow in excess of 1000
events) in 50 countries.
The Small Places Tour is Amnesty International's most ambitious global music and human rights project since the Human Rights Now! Tour in 1988; it will feature hundreds of concerts and events around the globe between September 10th and December 10th (Human Rights Day).
The tour marks the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights (UDHR).
Inspired by Eleanor Roosevelt's famous "small places" speech in 1958, musicians are being asked to raise their voices in song and action in support of Amnesty International's UDHR 60 plans which focus on making the promise of universal, indivisible human rights a reality for all.
The organizers took great pains to develop a project that would be both human rights conscious as well as environmentally friendly. The Small Places Tour is unique in that artists worldwide can participate to raise funds and awareness by performing benefit concerts, tabling, offering
premium-seating packages, or auctioning off meet and greets and other unique fan experiences during their regularly scheduled touring cycle.
"The Small Places Tour will reach more people than the Conspiracy of Hope, Human Rights Now! and UDHR 50 concerts combined," said Art For Amnesty's Bill Shipsey. "This shows how alive and vibrant the cause of human rights still is to artists and their fans. The Declaration may be 60 years old, but it is still inspiring the next generation of activists to get involved."
The launch came after Peter Gabriel was recognized as AI's 2008 Ambassador of Conscience for his tireless work for human rights. Accepting the award previously held by Nelson Mandela, Vaclav Havel, Mary Robinson and U2, Gabriel said: "It was through the tours for Amnesty International that I first met many people around the world engaged in human rights work.
It was these people and their extraordinary stories of suffering and courage that I found impossible to walk away from, so the Ambassador of Conscience Award means a great deal to me.
"I hope that the Small Places Tour on the 60th anniversary of the UDHR will really help to reinforce and underpin this extraordinary document that has been crucial to the lives of so many citizens of the world, and to be a similar source of inspiration to all those who take part." Gabriel was presented the award by The Edge.

Laugh 'til You Cry! Wanda Sykes At Spotlight 29 Casino
COACHELLA, Calif., Sept. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Get ready to laugh 'til
your funny bone hurts when comedian Wanda Sykes takes over the microphone
at Spotlight 29 Casino on October 18. The Emmy-winner has been called one
of the funniest stand-up comics, and Entertainment Weekly calls her one of
the "25 Funniest People in America." Sykes is starring along with special
guest Keith Robinson.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20050203/LATH047LOGO)
Sykes first began working in stand up in 1987, and since then has had a
successful career as a comic, a writer and an actor. In addition to her TV
work, including "The New Adventures of Old Christine," she has appeared in
more than a dozen movies, including "Evan Almighty," "Monster-in-Law" and
"My Super Ex-Girlfriend," and has been heard in such animated features as
"Barnyard" and "Over the Hedge."
She has been nominated as a performer and writer for three Emmys and
won as a writer in 1999. In 2001, she won the American Comedy Award for
Outstanding Female Stand-up Comic.
Her standup act is as timely as it is hilarious. Famously outspoken on
just about every topic, Sykes recently said, "If you don't believe in
same-sex marriage, then don't marry someone of the same sex!"
This concert is rated R, which is not at all unusual for Skyes. In
fact, in August 2006, she told Entertainment Weekly, "People ask me to
leave a phone message for their boyfriend and curse them out. I'm like,
'Get the f--- out of here, what's wrong with you? I'm not doing that.' And
even then, they go, 'Ha-ha! She told me to get the f--- outta here, she's
so funny!' I can't win."
This is a return visit to the Palm Springs area for Sykes. Her 2004
trip was called one of the five most memorable of the year by the Desert
Sun newspaper. It could have been her act or her riding a Cessna down a
downtown street that made it memorable. Either way, Sykes firmly
established herself as a must-see performer in the Coachella Valley.
Tickets for Wanda Sykes and special guest Keith Robinson are $55 and
$45 and are available now at Spotlight29.com, at the Spotlight 29 Casino
Gift Shop or by calling Star Tickets at (800) 585-3737. Show time is 8 p.m.
R Rated: Content May Not Be Suitable for all audiences. Must be 18 Years
and accompanied by Adult 21+.
Put the spotlight on fun at Spotlight 29 Casino, the Coachella Valley's
most exciting place to play. Spotlight 29 Casino is a business venture of

Celebrity Power Magazine Interviews Rev. Run and Justine Simmons
">
8/27/08
Aquarius Williams
On August 21, 2008 The Legendary Reverend Run and wife Justine Simmons partnered with Kool-Aid and Kaboom in a joint effort to give back to the community. Their mission is to complete twenty-four playgrounds across the country by 2008.
One of their many stops took place in Atlanta, GA at the Edgewood Court apartments. The power couple was greeted with enthusiastic volunteers, young children, seniors of the community and representatives from Kool-Aid & Kaboom.
The playground’s construction began from the morning hours until mid afternoon. The playground was filled with brightly colored sliding boards, color coordinated work- benches, murals of the United States and freshly laid mulch for “safe landings”. The children of Design Day Events created the playground’s layout and design.
When asked in an interview with Aquarius Williams of Q-Talks TV “What inspired the desire to partner with Kool-Aid and Kaboom in their initiative to supply the youth with playgrounds” The Simmons responded with “ They saw Run’s House with all the kids and said, they’ll be perfect to build parks; so they called us and they were right. We signed up and got to see the community building parks.”
Reverend Run and Justine Simmons have reminded America the core values of a healthy and strong family. They are teaching and leading by example. One can view the Simmons household on their hit reality show “Run’s House” airing on MTV at various times or read their book “Take Back Your Family”… A Challenge to America’s Parents!
