Proceeds from New Song “Fierce” Goes to Trans Community

“Fierce” is an engaging, propulsive, and danceable rallying cry bringing together the formidable talents of acclaimed award-winning actress and host Angelica Ross, international dance pop diva and DJ Ultra Naté, and features the beloved NYC advocate, activist and performer, Mila Jam.

The electro pop anthem invites everyone to “Pose!” “Sashay!” and “Walk!” for change – designed to bring further awareness to the steadily increasing number of hate crimes and murders against Black and Latinx trans women.

2020 was the deadliest year on record for transgender and gender non-conforming people with an epidemic of violence disproportionately affecting women of color. This charitable release initiative – funded with a grant from Pop Culture Collaborative – aims to enlighten, educate, and celebrate the trans community, its mission and their allyship through song. Proceeds benefit: The GLAAD Transgender Media Program (@GLAAD) www.glaad.org/transgender; The Sylvia Rivera Law Project  www.srlp.org; and The Marsha P. Johnson Institute https://marshap.org/.

Every day is another opportunity to feel Fierce! Listen at https://ingroov.es/fierce-v.
