Hip-Hop veterans De
La Soul have teamed up with Fishbone, Suffrajet, Slum Village, Rich Medina, and
others in an effort to “Take Back TV.”
“The Take Back TV” rally/concert will take place in New York City
and is spearheaded by Current TV to empower young adults to become more creative
in selecting programming for the network.
Current TV is the network founded by former Vice-President of the United States,
Al Gore.
The free performances and "Take Back TV" rally will
be a public outreach effort aimed at furthering viewer participation. The network
is even encouraging audience members to bring their own cameras to the park.
Following the New York City performance, the campaign will travel to Philadelphia
on
October 20, for a performance at the North West corner of City Hall.
The New York City
concert is scheduled to be held in Central Park on October 6th and the concert
starts at 9pm. Tickets are free for both events.
