Bowie Donates to Jena 6 Defense Fund

NEW ORLEANS — David Bowie has donated $10,000 to a legal defense fund for six black teens charged in an alleged attack on a white classmate in the tiny central Louisiana town of Jena.

"There is clearly a separate and unequal judicial process going on in the town of Jena," Bowie said Tuesday . "A donation to the Jena Six Legal Defense Fund is my small gesture indicating my belief that a wrongful charge and sentence should be prevented."

...Notice: it's creative artists that display intelligence and integrity...and are courageous enough to attempt to do what is right...we applaud David Bowie in his effort...
