UPRISE 5!!

Uprise is a youth event focusing on social justice and hip hop and was created to celebrate the abilities and importance of youth in our community and movement building. As the fifth annual Uprise, this year’s theme is Uprise 5: Uprise Against Police Brutality and it will take place at the Chicago Art Department(1932 S Halsted #100) from 2 pm - 8 pm on Saturday, Sept 26 , 2015. 

Festivities for the day include performances from local artists and headliners, a bboy/bgirl battle, a Hip-Hop and R&B Online Cypher, and a graffiti battle. 

Uprise will be held from afternoon until night. The workshops, the graffiti battle and bboy/bgirl battles will take place throughout the day and the evening will conclude with performance and announcing the winners of the battles. This is open to the community and we hope to create a safe space that fosters the creativity, talents, experiences and stories of youth in Chicago in a fashion that can only be described as One Love.

Elephant Rebellion: https://www.facebook.com/ElephantRebellion Ty's music: http://tylee.bandcamp.com/ My music: http://www.kwing.newgrounds.com/audio/ Lyrics: What's the cause and effect when you pause to inspect The impossible mess of implausible deaths A knock to the head, a shot to the chest And the cops that aggressed still have not been addressed If the kid is black they kick his ass, he never gets a chance Then they omit the facts, fibbing fast, insisting that they're hitting back We sit and ask was it as bad in the past?
Upri5e against police violence.
Lyrics: Another man, shot by the police Reddit front page, CNN top story /we only see it because someone had their phone out otherwise it'd be some shit we wouldn't even know about Speed traps to rack up infractions 10 percent extra on every transaction on top of that, I pay income taxes to pay you to go around and fucking shoot black kids?!
