Brown and black people from Milwaukee’s North and South side unite on the bridge that separates them to discuss issues that they all face. This was a powerful experience that brought plenty of emotions. #OccupyTheHoodMKE #Unity #Peace
Just last week Kanye West supported #OccupyWallStreet. Now this week we have Bun B, David Banner, and Tom Morello. Bun B feels that he should be a part of this because their are not enough celebrities and hip-hop artists that talk about the issues we have in America. Watch these videos and see what they have to say for yourself….
Hoods all over the U.S. are getting together and starting there own movement. Occupy The Hood is a movement ran by people of color. Black and Latino Americans lack participation in the #Occupy movement, so Occupy The Hood is a movement started by Malik Rhasaan and Ife Johari Uhuru after participating in the #OccupyWallStreet protest.
They believe that people of color don’t know how Wall Street effects them and by starting Occupy The Hood, they will bring more people of color involved in the movement.

I wonder if Jay-Z has ever been called a nigga in Paris. Or if Martin Margiela referred to Kanye as a nigga, would he still associate himself with that brand? I came across some young people in Cali that weren’t letting the N-Word slide at all when verbally assaulted at the Super Uno Market on the corner of Vernon and Van Ness. They didn’t even resort to violence, which is something that we don’t hear enough of.
Are you afraid to take stake in your community?

"I am society's child, this is how they made me, and now I'm sayin what's on my mind and they don't want that. This is what you made me, America."
Just months ago I was blogging on how Tupac’s profound messages still remained relevant today. As a young adult, I vividly recall being in middle school and hearing him say,” WE ARE THE VOICE OF THE VOICELESS.”
