about

September Girls originally recorded this cover of The Monk's classic, SHUT UP, as part of the Age of Indignation session in 2015, but left the track unreleased until now. Angered and frustrated by the violence and inequality perpetrated against black people, usually at the hands of those in power and those who are white, we felt somewhat powerless in our ability to fight for justice. What we can do is help donate to the organisations that fight for equality and freedom.

We are offering this song as a "name your price" download and will donate 100% of the proceeds of this single to two important organizations; The NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund and MASI, an Irish organisation campaigning for an end to Direct Provision.

The NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc. is America’s premier legal organization fighting for racial justice. Through litigation, advocacy, and public education, LDF seeks structural changes to expand democracy, eliminate disparities, and achieve racial justice in a society that fulfills the promise of equality for all Americans. LDF also defends the gains and protections won over the past 75 years of civil rights struggle and works to improve the quality and diversity of judicial and executive appointments. www.naacpldf.org/about-us/

MASI is the collective Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland, a platform for asylum seekers to join together in unity and purpose
MASI seeks justice, freedom and dignity for all asylum seekers.
MASI demands the end of direct provision, the right to work and education, and opposes deportation. www.masi.ie/about-us/

lyrics

Got a reason to laugh
Got a reason to cry
Believing you're wise
And being so dumb

World is so worried
World is so worried
Be a liar everywhere
Shut up, don't cry!
