WWW.FREEDOMPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM-HIPHOP AND POLITICS

In closing of the week, we feature freedompeoplemagazine.com. In my view, along with the issues that plagues our cities, the social and political climate, i believe we are now moving and growing into an consciousness that sees the need for change. In perspective people are seeing life beyond 1 dimension, and past their own selves. Both young, and old feel it, and from a sub-culture it will grow into a theme and way of life. With this train of thought now reflecting in the culture, freedom people magazine exemplify's it. Salute ya'll, continue to show the hearts of the people and the value of human life.


FREEDOMPEOPLE Magazine of Social & Political Transformation

FREEDOMPEOPLE Magazine is a much needed & anticipated HIP HOP publication that was specifically designed to educate, nurture & develop (both young & older) generation's mind. Created to give knowledge to the HIP HOP community through Hip Hop. FREEDOMPEOPLE Magazine will be hittin' on topics such as: politics/laws, Hip Hop culture, the past, present and our future. FREEDOMPEOPLE Magazine will be discussing issue's that might be controversial (to some), but is very much needed as it is nowhere else provided. Unlike any other magazine out there GUARANTEE! FREEDOMPEOPLE Magazine will deliver exciting, powerful, and realistic issues, stories and articles on spread pages representing all HIP HOP elements. Each page empowers creativity, rich in designs, photographs and images, but at the very same time, also, teaches what is currently missing in many of our lives today.

NEGUSWORLD MOVEMENT

We close this weeks feature with a good brother of mine, and a true leader among leaders. Negus Johwell Baptiste. Johwell took the struggles of his own life
and transformed beauty from ashes..negusworld..derived from the from the amharic language(ethiopian) a term meaning "king". Its a clothing line that represents change, power and overcoming. It is an International movement that includes dance,
music, clothing and combines cultures for empowerment to all people..a movement i am also a part of.. a movement to be honored for its impact, and hard work. Here's a segment of Johwell's bio for a lil' descript, salute Negus Johwell.. let it feed..

"A 9/11 survivor. He left the country he grew up in on august 13th 1997 at the age of 19. He then witnessed and survived 4 years later the most horrifying act of terorism this world has ever known.
He immortalized this moment with his own camera... Guess that makes it an average life.

From his childhood's friend getting murdered, to getting baptized by his brother bennchoumy @ the jacob javitz center in front of a crowd well over 3 thousand, he had then the goal of becoming the leader of a church, but eventualy stepped away in search of his own truth. Leader of his own body, mind and soul , he is one of the 1st of 2 to have set foot on the negusworld ground. Inspiring others to wear their own crown with pride... Guess that makes me an average king."
