I exist as part of a loose but rather extensive network-collective we like to call THE PEOPLES PARTY. Actors, educators, entrepreneurs, MC's, musicians, painters, producers, programmers -- from LA to Leiria, Brooklyn to Brixton, Sao Paulo to Soweto -- all working in their respective crafts to further an artistic, socio-economic, political and philosophical agenda which benefits their people...our people...us. If you are trying to make something positive pop...wherever, whatever...maybe we can link you with someone trying to make similar movements in your area.
