Amnesty International gets a theme song



A title card at the start of the "Toast to Freedom" video explains, "To celebrate Amnesty International's 50 years of fighting for freedom and human rights, more than 50 artists from around the world collaborated in a 'Toast to Freedom'."

Carl Carlton and Larry Campbell wrote the song (Carlton of Germany, not the US gospel and R&B singer).   Thursday Art for Amnesty Band performed the song on NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
