All Supporters of Independent Media are welcome and invited! KNSJ is owned by Activist San Diego, a 17-year-old 501(c)(3) with a rock-solid mission of Networking for social justice. This gathering is a fundraiser to launch the next stage of KNSJ’s development. The monopoly power of corporate media eliminated KLSD’s alternative voice leaving a big void on San Diego’s airwaves. KNSJ is now here and has picked up the baton, but we need YOU to carry it forward.
