CLAP COGNAC PERFORMING AT BRM presents “Not Without A Fight” 5/20/10

BRM presents “Not Without A Fight”: A series of benefit shows to save Beyond Race Magazine New York, NY – After nearly five years of showcasing groundbreaking and emerging talent in music andlifestyle, Beyond Race Magazine (BRM) is on the verge of shutting down operations. “The economiclandscape in the magazine publishing area is slowly repairing itself, but not enough to support thelongevity 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 followalong the lines of other publications that have had to reinvent themselves in order to continueoperating. One last chance at saving the magazine in its current form is its audience and followers.
