In 1999, MTV, along with the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Department of Education conducted a year long anti-violence campaign called "Fight for Your Rights: Take a Stand Against Violence". As part of this campaign MTV offered a free Take a Stand Against Violence CD/Action Guide which featured music by top artists and contained information on how to prevent violence in your community. You were able to receive a copy of this action guide and enhanced CD by calling 1-800-638-8736 or visiting the Office Of Juvenile Justice And Delinquency Prevention Web Site. The CD containes Tori's Me and a Gun. MSNBC said "The Fight For Your Rights: Take A Stand Against Violence CD/Action Guide outlines specific ways for young people to reduce violence in their communities. Mentoring, conflict resolution, youth crime watch programs, arts and advocacy programs are only some of the suggested courses of action. The CD features music by Lauryn Hill, Alanis Morrisette, Tori Amos, Dave Matthews Band, Everclear and Backstreet Boys. Additionally, the CD contains educational content from the National Center for Conflict Resolution, which can be accessed on home computers.
