Hi Revolutionaries

Im planning on going to this community gathering on Thursday evening in Oakland - jsut $10 if you get your tix in advance.

Earth Amplified will be performing - they performed at our huge Bay Area Raw Holiday Event last December - for those of you who came to that.    They will do some super fun conscious hip hop.

There will be a fresh juice bar from SOS juice - the new company my good friend Ashel is building - and lots of other great vendors, food justice organizations and interesting green business people to learn about and connect with.

The event info is below as well as the ticket link.

I Hope to see a few of you there!

In 2010, Seasunz and J. Bless rocked the underground with the seminal “Green Hip Hop” album, Earth Amplified. Now, Earth Amplified is a four-piece band that has heated up stages across the nation with artists ranging from Blackalicious, Dead Prez, Midnite, The Rebirth Brass Band and more. The band plays hard hitting, conscious ‘Roots-Rap-Reggae’, and is here to uplift the people and the planet. Earth Amplified bridges the “Occupy Wall Street” movement and the urban underground. This is eco-culture that bangs.
