PRIMARY DAY - WHAT MATTERS?
---------------------------
On the night of the New Hampshire Primary, FSTV the Manhattan Neighborhood Network and the National Hip Hop Association present, "PRIMARY DAY - WHAT MATTERS?" This historic live broadcast will bring you exclusive
alternative coverage of the Presidential Primary. Alternating between studio discussion and cultural performances in New York and Primary coverage in NH -- using FSTV's mobile production studio, the "Cyberbus" --we will report on primary results as they come in AND address deeper,
systemic issues facing Americans in this election-cycle.
Our hosts Deepa Fernandes, George Martinez and Shannon Service will engage young activists, hip-hop artists, political organizers, and experts on the following topics: education, civil liberties, immigrant rights, prison moratorium, and internet activism. According to Martinez, "'Primary Day -
What Matters?' will transform the New Hampshire primary into an exciting,innovative, new form of live television programming that combines insightful political commentary, the power of hip-hop and the cultural arts, with interactive media technology."
