Drew Velting - The Mournful Death of Heather Heyer

Wrote this song to support Heather Heyer's legacy. I hope more people will remember her name, what she did, who she was - and what she continues to be. I hope the song inspires others to promote social change in whatever way they believe they can make a difference. Proceeds from song downloads will be donated to the Heather Heyer Foundation. Special thanks to all the wonderful people who made this video possible including Joe Targove at DreamCatcher Entertainment (sound recording); Jenna Shefts (video); Chris Cerbo and Val Thompson at CBS19 News in Charlottesville, VA for providing video footage and photos; Bob Mical for his photos, "Downtown Charlottesville," "Jackson Park," and "Maplewood Cemetery;" Charlie Moehle for his photo, "CDEL7043" from his "Stand Up for Equality and Diversity" album; and the Heather Heyer Foundation for their support and encouragement.
