Hip Hop 4 Peace Town Hall: PEACE IN THE STREETS

About this event

Hip Hop 4 Peace, in association with The Peace Alliance, The 11 Eleven Network, and Groundwurk Studios today announced a live-stream community event, Hip Hop 4 Peace Town Hall: Peace In The Streets on Wednesday, March 9, 2022, at 3 PM PDT at Catch One in Los Angeles.

This event will bring together the largest gathering of Hip Hop artists in recent years, community stakeholders, and elected officials who will address the recent uptick of gun violence in Hip Hop culture and call for peacebuilding measures. The live-stream can be viewed on the VYRE Network, Hip Hop TV.com, The 11 Eleven Network, and Swagg Media.

Although peace is the foundation of Hip Hop, the recent rise of gun violence has created an untenable environment in and outside of the culture, impacting communities nationwide. With one rapper dead every 44 hours due to gun violence, the Hip Hop community can no longer be silent about the prevalence of guns on the streets and the resulting environment of violence and harm.

The date of March 9th is significant as it marks the 25th anniversary of the killing of Christopher “Biggie” Wallace in Los Angeles. And sadly, Hip Hop continues to struggle today with the senseless killings of young rappers.

“We were very intentional in selecting March 9th as the day to bring artists, activists, officials, and peacebuilders together in the hopes of effectuating real change,”

stated Tina Marie Tyler, creator and executive producer of Hip Hop 4 Peace Town Hall: Peace In The Streets. “We must support Rep. Barbara Lee’s Bill HR: 1111 which elevates peacebuilding to the executive branch of government and will provide financial resources directly to communities.”
