HipHopNC – K 97.5

Raleigh, NC –Thousands are expected to meet at Shaw University on Saturday, February 27 and march to the State Legislature on Jones Street to protest the re-segregation of public schools, call for education instead of imprisonment, and demand good jobs and schools.  The 4^th Annual HKonJ (Historic Thousands on Jones Street) March and Assembly has adopted the slogan of the 50^th Anniversary of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in honor of spirit of the SNCC movement an in light of a need for movement today. Only 50 years after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Ella Baker helped Black and White students form SNCC, there is today a similar explosion among our young people of long-simmering frustrations.
