Cher Key Note Speaker at MoveOnStudentAction.org's Event at Crobar Miami

South Beach, Miami – crobar, Miami's premier nightclub announces that on Friday, October 22nd , 7:30pm Cher will make a special appearance to promote the film The Ground Truth: The Human Cost of War, a film that looks at the long-term and often invisible effects the war in Iraq is having on thousands of nameless, undecorated Americans. Cher will address an estimated crowd of 2,000 young Americans, college students and undecided Florida voters as part of MoveOnStudentAction.org’s nationwide “Feel a Draft?” Campaign. Crobar will also screen the well-received documentary Going Upriver, which highlights John Kerry’s experiences during the Vietnam War and the leadership of the veterans and students during the anti-war movement.

MoveOn Student Action launched it’s “Feel a Draft” campaign on Monday with an open letter to President Bush that ran as an ad called “Will You Call On Us To Die?” in the New York Times. More than 65,000 young voters demanding a specific plan to avoid the need for a draft as well as an exit strategy to end the war in Iraq signed the letter. Additional print ads ran in 155 campus papers in battleground states this week.

Crobar New York has been very active in the political arena in recent months hosting campaign stops for several Democratic candidates, including John Kerry and John Edwards, parties for move-on.org, and a recent debate watching party sponsored by The Nation and Air America.

Ken Smith and Cal Fortis, owners of all three crobar locations in Chicago, Miami and New York want people to know that in their estimation "politics is as much a part of the cultural climate as dance music' and it is an honor for us to use our clubs
