A week before their world tour to support 22, A Million kicks off, Bon Iver has announced a gender equity campaign called “2 A Million.” The campaign will, as the band put it in their announcement, work to “raise support, awareness and person-to-person connections in an effort to end gender inequality, domestic violence, and sexual abuse.”
