Bio
.. .... ..About the Universal Zulu Nation........ The Universal Zulu Nation is synonymous with the founding family of Hip Hop. It is a grassroots community-based organization that was begun by a young student named Afrika Bambaataa in the Bronx borough of New York City in 1973. He is acknowledged internationally as the Godfather of Hip Hop culture. It was his vision to empower communities by uniting the artistic elements of Hip Hop. .... Zulu Nation's purpose is to raise social awareness through forms of expression as a positive outlet for underprivileged youth, alternatively providing a forum for them to air grievances and settle disputes in a non-violent manner. .... In addition, Zulu Nation's motto "Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding" was basis for street education through various literature called 'Infinity Lessons". The organization is fundamental to the establishment of Hip Hop as a universal culture that transcends all the boundaries of race, age, beliefs, social status, gender, and locality. .... Zulu Nation's activism in the Bronx through various means including hosting events, mentorship programs, participating in gang mediations, and holding benefits was instrumental to the phenomenon of Hip Hop that continues to thrive today. When the music industry and national media first propelled Hip Hop into the mainstream during the early 80's, Bambaataa and other Hip Hop pioneers embarked on the first Hip Hop tours; bringing authentic Hip Hop culture and its values to an overwhelmingly receptive national and international audience. Subsequently, Universal Zulu Nation's mission to preserve and elevate Hip Hop culture within communities succeeded as chapters began to develop across all continents....... ..About 206 Zulu - Universal Zulu Nation Seattle Chapter...... .. Though relatively new to the organization, the Seattle Chapter of the Universal Zulu Nation; under the leadership of King Khazm, has received international recognition for the progressive civic involvement of it's members. 206 Zulu's alliances with local media sources, cultural and ethnic organizations, and non-profits have resulted in the chapter's participation in a number of community-centered events, benefit shows, workshops, panels, and programs in coordination with:.... ..
