Waxploitation to Auction Items Donated by Angelina Jolie, OutKast, Eminem and More

Waxploitation, Inc. announced today it will launch its second online auction to assist victims of the 'ethnic cleansing' taking place in the African country of Sudan.

The auction will be launched on eBay on July 12th at www.eBay.com/the_wax_trust and will include over 100 rare and signed items donated by Angelina Jolie, OutKast, Eminem, Radiohead, BAM Margera, Bjork, Kanye West, Serena Williams, Trent Reznor (NIN), Beastie Boys, System of a Down, Shepherd Ferry, Nelly, REM, Phish, Ciara, Atmosphere, (Grateful) Dead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, David Banner, Chad Muska, Sum41, Sage Francis, Will Oldham, Foo Fighters, Dropkick Murphys, Nappy Roots, Paulina Rubio, Rob Zombie, They Might Be Giants, John Legend, Prince and Metallica amongst many others.

It is estimated that more then 400,000 people have been murdered and more than 2 million people have been displaced from their homes by Sudanese government backed militias called the Janjaweed.

"We've learned a lot since our auction earlier this year," says Jeff Antebi, founder and creative director of Waxploitation.

"This time, we are working towards not just raising money for relief organizations, but also putting together a nationwide petition demanding that the Senate and White House take definitive action against the Sudanese government.

It seems like every time there's a moment for this horror to finally be addressed, something overshadows it in the news media. So we're going to shake the trees ourselves and create a way for people to take real action."

This year Waxploitation released a CD called "Genocide in Sudan", featuring artists like Gorillaz, System of a Down, Jurassic 5, Danger Mouse & Murs, Yoko Ono and more others.
The $10,000 profit was donated towards relief efforts in Sudan and Chad.
