"I could write a song about this, and maybe I will... but for now, I will use 'Criminal' to help the WRONGLY criminalized get justice"
'At least 2,500 migrant children have been separated from their parents since Donald Trump enacted his family separation border policy. Of those, five have reportedly died while in ICE custody. Now, Fiona Appleis doing her part to help by donating royalties for her song “Criminal” to While They Wait, a fund that assists immigrants seeking asylum.
Apple made the announcement on Sunday through Tumblr fan site Fiona Apple Rocks. “After months and months of reading the news about how my country is treating refugees, I’ve become gutted with frustration trying to figure out the best way to help,” she wrote. “It seems to me that the best way I can help detainees is to contribute to payment of their legal fees.”' - via COS
