Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney Hosts Hip Hop Power Shop Saturday June 10th, 2006 from 12:00pm – 4:00pm at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center in Stone Mountain, Georgia. The theme of this historic gathering is: "ARMING OUR YOUTH WITH WEAPONS OF MASS INSTRUCTION." Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney and the Hip Hop community are coming together to promote the awareness and education of young people. The socio-political impact of our government on the youth can''t be ignored, even though their inherent power often is. By "ARMING OUT YOUTH WITH WEAPONS OF MASS INSTRUCTION," teaching the young how to engage in the system, Congresswoman McKinney believes that young people will be able to take their destiny into their own hands, and soar to heretofore unseen levels of achievement. Various legislative initiatives which affect the youth will be discussed with some of the areas leading Hip Hop and Rap artists and community leaders. Enlightenment and empowerment will highlight this year's Fourth Congressional District Hip Hop Power Shop. More information can be found at http://www.house.gov/mckinney |
