BRM Presents "NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT"


After
 nearly 
five 
years 
of 
showcasing 
groundbreaking 
and
 emerging 
talent 
in 
music 
and
 lifestyle,
 Beyond
 Race Magazine
(BRM)
 is 
on 
the 
verge
 of
 shutting
 down
 operations.

“The
 economic
 landscape
 in 
the 
magazine
 publishing 
area 
is 
slowly
 repairing 
itself, 
but 
not 
enough
 to
 support 
the
 longevity 
of 
a
 nationally
 distributed 
publication,”
 said
 David 
Terra,
 Publisher
 of
 BRM.


With
 continued
 cuts
 to
 print
 advertising 
and 
limitations
 due
 to 
a 
lack 
of 
consistent 
revenue,
 BRM is
 poised
 to 
follow
 along
 the
 lines 
of 
other
 publications
 that
 have
 had 
to 
reinvent 
themselves 
in 
order
 to 
continue
 operating. 

One 
last
 chance 
at 
saving 
the 
magazine 
in 
its 
current
 form
 is 
its 
audience
 and 
followers.
 BRM
 has 
launched 
a 
fundraising 
campaign 
through
 it’s
website 
(www.beyondrace.com) and will
 be 
hosting 
a
 series
 of 
benefit 
concerts 
called 
“Not
 Without 
A 
Fight.”
 All
 shows
 will
 be
 during
 the 
week 
of 
May
17 
at
 Santos
 Party 
House
 in 
Manhattan,
 New
York
 with
 the
 goal 
of 
“keeping 
the 
doors 
open”
 by
 hopefully
 raising
 enough
 money 
for
 BRM to
 continue 
operating.
