Taking our vision to the streets...!!!

I am the official tour organizer of a very exciting project :

THE BEAT BACK BUSH CIVIC ENGAGEMENT TOUR
August 15th-30th

Please get in touch if you know any venues that might screen our film, have us perform and/or facilitate trainings on HIPHOP, ART & ACTIVISM in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Berkeley, Oakland, Santa Cruz, Los Angeles, San Diego (we end at Burning Man).

The BBB Collective is the proud creator of the Award-Winning Beat Back Bush Workout, an educational, informational, and motivational video that seeks to ignite the Hip-Hop Generation in our fight for social justice. Using the language and rhythms of our generation, we hope to inspire today's visionaries to share and take action, particularly by getting youth to vote in November 2006, while helping to lay the foundation for significant grassroots mobilization around the 2008 presidential elections.The video addresses a plethora of issues and policies including: abortion, the war, and globalization. Inspired by music videos and other contemporary media, BBB features dance, kickboxing, yoga, jazzercise, break-dancing, hip hop, animation, original spoken word and music.
