PRO-CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY
For
those individuals who are concerned about the direction of some contemporary
music, particularly with regards to children issues, there are many proactive
legitimate activities that one can partake in, such as:
- Educating the
public and increasing awareness of the negative issues generated by the
entertainment industry, particularly with regards to the well being of children;
-
Deterring
investment in the record companies, parent companies, record stores,
distributors, radio stations, TV networks, and sponsors that fail to live up to
their social and community responsibilities.
-
Challenging
and encouraging certain musicians, artists, and performers to generate better
and more inspiring craft and to live up to their social and community
responsibilities;
-
Partaking
in letter writing campaigns, protests, and boycotts of the artists, record
companies, conglomerates, record stores, radio stations, TV networks, and
sponsors that result in public relation problems;
-
Joining
or establishing organizations and support networks that raise awareness of
certain material, discuss important issues, set objectives, and build teams that
are committed to the same ideals.
