Flipboard Culture Desk<p>Legendary hiphop group Public Enemy has a new single, "March Madness." But it's not about basketball — it's about gun violence. Here's co-founder Flavor Flav's story for Newsweek about why he is campaigning for stronger gun protection laws. "America is being built on fear. You have people who are scared. And these people are fighting for gun rights to protect themselves. They wouldn't have to protect themselves if all guns were banned," he writes. "Fear is a powerful, short-term motivator. We need to flip it so it can break through to be a positive and valuable resource. Let our fear of losing our children be more powerful than our fear of our next-door neighbor." At the second link, learn more about "March Madness" from the Quietus. Profits from the song will go to The Black Music Action Coalition Human Rights Fund and the anti-gun-violence organization Everytown.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/9_cHR1" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/9_cHR1</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br><a href="https://flip.it/k43B9j" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/k43B9j</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USNews</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/GunControl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GunControl</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/FlavorFlav" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FlavorFlav</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/PublicEnemy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicEnemy</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/ChuckD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChuckD</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Music</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/HipHop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HipHop</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/GunViolence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GunViolence</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/GunControl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GunControl</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/GunControlNow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GunControlNow</span></a></p>
