Zune Social: If you like to make a difference and you have yet to learn about HeadCount, (and like free music downloads), I suggest you keep reading.
HeadCount is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that sets out to get people to register to vote and to have them change the world through the use of democracy via music.
The whole of their objectives can be viewed here.
Through the HeadCount website, you can easily write to Congress about Food and Farm Policies, the Gulf Coast Recovery (post-Katrina), Health Care Reform, Human Rights, Personal Liberty, Sustainability and Conversation, or you can create your own topic to write to Congress about.
Hell, you can even register to vote from their website.
Musicians such as Kings of Leon, Foo Fighters, Wilco, Vampire Weekend, Dr. Dog, Ani DiFranco, The Roots, Santana, Passion Pit, Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam, Blink-182, Cake, Dave Mathews Band, and a grip more are all involved in this project.
Once you've registered at HeadCount, (and maybe have sent a few emails), you are given free reign over several free music downloads from the above mentioned artists and more. Even awesome-er? The tracks change from time to time, so you have to keep checking in to see who has been added.
Dude, I just sent an email to my state reps regarding climate change and was given a code to download the Best of Bonnaroo. That's 17 free music downloads!!
I firmly believe that if you don't exercise your right to vote or let your voice be heard, you don't have the right to complain.
Furthermore, it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to make a difference nor is it even that difficult to do.
