   About Youthroots
We are YOUTHROOTS -- high school critical media producerz and leaders of the 21st century. We rep the Town, but we love the world. We trying to get ourz in this society by rooting ourselves in our community as leaderz, producerz, & changerz. We're strapped with weapons of the 21st century to act and interact as street scholars, artists, organizers, and multi-media producers.

Plus we noe whazzup....Real talk...We noe wassup wit da forces that try to bring down our fam in our inner city communities, but we also are building the skills and knowledge to infiltrate, study, disrupt, dismantle, and produce this revolutionary culture that Dead Prez be talkin about.

We use urban sociology, music production, digital journalism (podcast), hip hop theatre, spoken word, graphic design, paint brushes, spray cans, and cyber space to reprezent ourselves in four roles:
Word Warriors
Paint Pacifists
Cyber Souljas
Image Infiltrators

Breakin that down, here's what that means...

WORD WARRORS use the critical ideas and language we learn to communicate in the written and spoken word through informational materials, verbal discourse, and Hip Hop Theatre.

PAINT PACIFISTS use brush and spray paint as the weapon of visual expression to communicate our critical voice to the public

CYBER SOULJAS use internet weapons like podcasting, myspace & youtube to reach our peers

IMAGE INFILTRATORS use digital photography and graphic design to influence thought and change in things we make like flyers, posters, and silk screened t-shirts.
