HAWKING WHITE POWER AT SCHOOL: MUSIC BRINGS RACISM TO TEENS Panzerfaust Records is a five-year-old company [headquartered in South Saint Paul, MN] that has quickly become one of the top "white power" record labels in the country. Hundreds of bands in America and Europe produce such hate music. If Byron Calvert has his way, their fans will soon be multiplying. In September he launched Project Schoolyard, a plan to snag kids 13 to 19 by distributing 100,000 free CDs of such bands as Day of the Sword, H8 Machine and Final War. Calvert cares less about the melody than the message. "We hook 'em with the music," he says, and then kids learn -- and buy -- more online. As his Web site declares, "We don't just entertain racist kids, we create them!" _http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6542890/site/newsweek/_ (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6542890/site/newsweek/) Is anyone else concerned about this? --Jennifer Armstrong Payne/Phalen _____________________________________________ To Join: St. Paul Issues Forum Rules Discussion Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ____________________________________________ NEW ADDRESS FOR LIST: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, modify subscription, or get your password - visit: http://www.mnforum.org/mailman/listinfo/stpaul
