Toodles! JSL. ------------------------------ From: Jay.Betrug@mail-e2a-service.gnn.com Date: Sun, 17 Mar 1996 22:21:05 -0500 (EST) Subject: Racist newsgroup proposal alert! There is currently a proposal for the newsgroup rec.music.white-power, an attempt by neo-nazi racists to legitimize their activities. It is now in the CFV stage, where anyone with a valid e-mail address may vote. "White power" racist music is not a legitimate form of music deserving of a separate rec.music newsgroup, but rather a political group masquerading as a musical one. And, the rec.* hierarchy is inappropriate because rec.* is for recreational activities, and racism is anything but recreational. But, most importantly, we must show the racists that they will not be granted a mainstream forum in order to promote hate. If you don't want a Usenet where minorities feel unwelcome and uncomfortable, vote NO on rec.music.white-power. Let's make this a crushing defeat for racists. To vote, send e-mail to music-vote@sub-rosa.com and put I vote NO on rec.music.white-power in the body of the message. The actual CFV can be found on news.announce.newsgroups, or by sending a blank e-mail to music-cfv@sub-rosa.com. Voting ends 23:59:59 UTC, 18 Mar 1996, so act quickly! ------------------------------ End of basia-digest V1 #64 **************************
