Video: Bambu – Before the Verdict by stillmyboo

Bambu calls on the LA Community to use our voices:

On January 1, 2009, local Oakland transit police murdered Oscar Grant in cold blood. His murderer is currently on trial in Los Angeles, and the jury is currently in deliberation. We are days away from a verdict and Bambu decided to take to the intersection of Florence and Normandie in his hometown of LA to send a message of solidarity to the people of Oakland. Bambu pushes for safe and calculated mobilizing, but makes it a point to encourage the natural emotion that people may be overwhelmed with if the verdict is not a just one.

Organize. Strategize. Project.

Research and find out where you can mobilize with others in your city.

***Bambu is not encouraging or supporting any unlawful action***

It’s Bambu, raw and uncut after the NYC Filipino Freedom Parade. This is off his latest album, Exact Change. He came through to the Takeover a few months ago, and was one of my favorite interviewees. He has a lot to speak about on a range of different topics which is apparent when you hear his music.
