I love Rise Against. And I wouldn't say that they are the new Rage Against the Machine (RATM), but they have filled a hole left by RATM, by bringing to the mainstream music consumer political issues that they normally may not have been aware, even in the age of the internet. Below is their touching video for their song "Make it Stop (September's Children)." In the video have highlighted many of the videos created by members of the It Gets Better Project, which lends support and encouragement to LGBT youth. The LGBT community, especially youth, are more highly susceptible to suicide and bullying than most if not all groups (I can't remember the statistics right off hand). You can check out and find out how to support the It Gets Better Project here.
