GASCD, an initialism standing for Governments Accountable to Society & Citizens = Democracy, is a compilation album put together in May 2001 by songwriter and activist Chris Brown and released in 2002. A double album inspired by the activist protests at the Quebec City Summit of the Americas, GASCD collects political songs and spoken word segments by both Canadian and international musicians and activists. The album's profits are distributed to progressive media and social justice groups.
