Earlier today I received an email from my hometown of Omaha Nebraska. It was from Dell Gines, the president of District 2 Neighborhood Association, with some disturbing news. The message was a mp3 file from the radio station KFAB. Now for those who are not in the Omaha area, KFAB is not known to play or support Black Music or the community in any way. However, it is not known to be disrespectful to my knowledge to this point. I ask that you listen to this radio promo that they've done about the North Side of the city; the African-American community. Between myself and Mr. Gines, we are asking for your support in this matter to have this filth and trash removed from the radio. Mr. Gines has contacted the radio and is currently waiting on a response from one of it's representatives. If there is no response by the end of today we will be forced to try other non-violent methods. So listen to this promo, post it, blog it, get the word out so that KFAB and the rest of Omaha will know that this type of behavior and radio programming is not needed and a apology is.

I have been unable to post the audio, however, if you would like to hear it please just leave a comment with your email address and I will get it over to you promptly.
