Description
An inspiring story that re-introduces Africa’s rich diversity to the rest of the world, as hip hop artists M1 (Dead Prez) and Umi (P.O.W.) travel to East Africa and connect with Ukoofulani Mau Mau, a revolutionary youth movement of artists in the slums of Nairobi.Through music, food and culture they dispel myths about Africa and travel to Tanzania to meet with former Black Panther members Mzee Pete O’Neal and Mama Charlotte O’Neal. Interviews with Geronimo Ji Jaga, Davey D, Toni Blackman, Binyavanga Wainaina, and more.
This is a great film for young people to see.
