FWT Quarterly Training: A New City at Flobots.org Community Space

Thumbnail
March 27, 2010 from 10am to 3pm
We have a lot to say about what we don’t like and what isn’t socially just about our current neighborhood, city, country, and world. But we often have a difficult time investing in what a tangible vision of the world we want would look like. Using the metaphor of building a new kind of city, we will explore the ways intersections of identities, systems, stories, history, and imagination inform what kind of a world we dream of building. We will also be using art and dialogue to start practicing…See More

About Me
I'm a rapper!
How I would like to change the world:
I want to see a world where young people learn to be peacemakers and problem-solvers and old people run institutions that make sure these values survive into adulthood.

I'd like to see a world where, as Howard Zinn suggests, war is both obsolete and taboo.

I'd like to see a world without wack emcees, in which I eat sushi every day .
I'd like to speak every language.
Tools I Have
Pencil, paper, stage, microphone.
Tools I Need
Time, French, German, the ability to tell when a mosh pit is being enjoyed by the people around it.
Favorite Bands
Busdriver, The Coup, 2Mex, Leonard Cohen, They Might be Giants, The Roots, Peter Fox, K'Naan, Silvio Rodriguez, REM, Aceyalone, The Roots again, Outkast, Common, Mos Def, Invincible, and a whole bunch of other rappers...
What issues are you most passionate about?
yes

As soon as I landed and recovered from jet lag, I consulted google and… Continue
