Those of you in NYC may want to check out a rally in Union Square this Friday protesting the racist actions of local radio station Hot 97. It’s a community event organized by a coalition of hip hop artists and activists (the “Hip Hop Coalition“) to celebrate the true hip hop culture with guest speakers: Afrika Bambaataa, Rosa Clemente, DJ Jazzy Jay, Roxanne Shante, Ishle Park, and other special guests, DJ Boo on the 1’s and 2’s, youth performances, and more.

Hip Hop culture is a positive tool for social change. (Bam) It is about celebrating our cultural diversity, solidarity, and freedom of expression. It is not about the commercialization and marketing of bigotry, hatred, and intolerance by Hot 97 and other peddlers of racially-divisive hate media.

Join legendary hip hop artists, community leaders, and performers in solidarity to celebrate hip hop culture and fight the hate-filled racist counter-culture of Hot 97 radio.
