REAL PEOPLE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD..

All songs of resistance whether it be DEAD PREZ, Immortal Technique, Manu Chao, Common, Blackstar,Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, The Roots, Tha Marleys, MYSTIC, Silvio Rodriguez, Ali Primera, Oscar Chavez, Victor Jarra. I love my conscious hip hop and la troba music and my Dave Hollister, Smokey Robinson, The Delfonics, Earth Wind and Fire, Donnell Jones, Musiq SoulChild, India Arie, John Legend, Anthony Hamilton, The Floaters, Jodeci, Mint Condition, Tony Toni Toné, Rafael Saadik, R.

New favorite movie is "V for Vendetta", you all gotta see it, the movie is super dope. many just like the action without the message but this movies got them both, u aint even gotta pay close attention.

Television:

Crime and real life dramas, martin re-runs, and random shows to de-stress my brain.

Books:

Anything that decolonizes the mind.

Heroes:

My family for doing their best and always believing in me. Aside from my family my sheroes/heroes are all real people who open their eyes, dont just complain but actually get off their butts and organize against injustice. The struggle is long and hard * But never forget that we aint the only ones struggling
