The Media Violence Fast

 

During the week beginning the 19th of October, the National Interfaith Coalition for Media Justice encouraged a week-long fast from media violence. This was in an effort to boycott media violence in the US and make it known to the powers that be, that some forms (they state that very clearly) are not acceptable. This years ban was regarding ‘hate speech’ and was in support of the National Hispanic Media Coalition. On a personal note, any form of racism vocal or not is most definitely unacceptable. However, from a more objective viewpoint, there is no opinion here in this particular campaign a whole, I just wanted to share.
