National billboard campaign against Negative Rap Music gains steam

Put Your Money Where Your Moaning Is- Help Spread the " Stop Listening to Trash" Billboard Campaign

If
you will send your eyes sto the top right corner of the page, you will
see what we bloggers like to call a widget. It is keeping track of a
campaign initiated after reading this post that I wrote about a church in Chicago putting up 20 billboards
urging people to “Stop Listening to Trash.” Several people commented
that they wished they could do that in their city. I responded, “ Open
up the yellow pages and call the billboard company.”

The folks over at African American Opinion decided to start a “Chip-In” campaign to duplicate the Chicago billboard campaign. I’ve decided to promote their effort here at What About Our Daughters. Now the organizer has given folks until November 30, 2007 July 31st, I‘m not waiting that long. This goal can be reached by the 4th of July. Time’s a-wasting!

Now
like you, I hate to part with my hard earned treasure, but I am going
to make an exception because when ( not if) this works, it is going to
change the face of activism for those of us who want to take this
activism from the Screen to the Streets. We have to stop preaching to the choir.
