UPDATE: November 4, 2020 at 4:15pm ET
Early this morning, Anti-Flag released the official music video for their newest single “A Dying Plea Vol. 1” and…oh man…they really did that. It feels like the culmination of everything so many of us have been shouting and fighting for, set to music and visuals that truly capture the immense anger and frustration. The video uses footage from the civil unrest of this year, along with historic imagery to show just how little things have changed. It comes together with the sense of urgency 2020 has given us. Check it out below—just be sure you’re emotionally prepared.
Right at midnight ET tonight, Anti-Flag will be releasing they’re newest single “A Dying Plea Vol. 1.” The new track featuring DeWayne Jackson, Marcia Richards (The Skints), Tom Morello, and Jalise Della Gary, will premiere on SiriusXM Faction and will play every hour all day tomorrow.

It seems as though the air time and the title communicate what so many of us feel, the constant pleading for things to just be better already.
All proceeds from “A Dying Plea” will go to SisterSPGH, The Justice LA Coalition, and My Block My Hood My City.
