The Stop the Violence Movement was formed by rapper KRS-One. During a Boogie Down Productions and Public Enemy concert, a young fan was killed in a fight; galvanized into action, KRS-One founded the Stop the Violence Movement. Comprised of some of the biggest stars in contemporary East Coast hip-hop, the movement released a single ('Self Destruction') in 1989 with all proceeds going to the National Urban League. I remember this as if it was yesterday. When I first heard the song and seen the video. I thought wow everyone uniting and the cause made it even more great. I was inspired that they are good and great people in the world. I had no idea how powerful and what kind of effect someone can make by just uniting a few. It gave me hope that someone understood what I was feeling let alone someone willing to take a stand and say enough is enough. So I ask when is enough is enough. I do my part are you??
