]]> On Sunday, April 13th, the National Geographic Channel will be airing a video entitled “Inside Straight Edge,” which will attempt to examine the culture behind the straight edge movement.

While principally known for their rejection of drugs, alcohol and casual sex, straight edge gangs are still considered violent AND dangerous by officials in cities like Reno, National Geographic mentions.

I wish I had premium cable; I’d have someone tape this for me. If any of you watch it, please go ahead and leave me a comment letting me know how it was. I’m interested to see how they examine the straight edge culture, as well as whether or not they touch on the history behind it.

According to their program schedule, the show should air tonight at 10 p.m.

Stay TRUE,

Denise
