The City of Justice Awards Dinner will be held on Friday, September 12, at 6:30 p.m. at the Biltmore Hotel, located at 506 S. Grand Ave. in downtown Los Angeles. Densmore and a small group of fellow percussionists will open the program with a brief set. Washington Post columnist and LA Weekly political editor Harold Meyerson will deliver the keynote speech.

City Councilmember Eric Garcetti, SEIU Local 1877 (Justice for Janitors) President Mike Garcia, and Leland Wong, director of Community and Government Relations for Kaiser Permanente, along with Santa Monica hotel workers and Los Angeles nursing home workers.
