FMFP was sent this music video from Teens Leading the Way. Apparently, they represented at the conference, but I didn’t get an opportunity to connect with them. However, Dylan Irie Scharf Lazerow from the Young Peoples Project wanted us to share this clip “as a resource to folks at the conference, and to give further ideas about how we can use hip hop music and culture for political...

Just say No to the war on drugs →
“Elon James White teamed up with the ACLU to urge Americans to “just say NO” to the War on Drugs. Why? Because it’s brought 40 years of wasteful, damaging, unjust policies. And also because David Simon says he’ll create another season of The Wire if we end it.”

Angola →
airellia:

Fuck. Apple.
“First it was Apple’s corporate tax breaks. Now Apple is patenting new technology that would disable cellphone video based on external signals from public venues.
