AMERICA EATS IT'S BABIESFour years ago, I designed this t-shirt that I didn't really release or make a lot of, in fact I think I only made like 5 t-shirts with it. I kinda designed it to just to get it outta my system. I believe Michael was in a trail or something, It was June 2005.

So I guess this is the new video from Calle 13 which is filmed in La Perla, and for those of you who don't know La Perla, is the epicenter of HOOD in Puerto Rico. The Favela of PR. The funny thing is that its right next to the biggest tourist district in Puerto Rico, Viejo San Juan. This is where all the cruises dock, all the souvenir shops are, all the outlets, and its like the soho of Puerto

Two days a week I teach a T-Shirt design after-school program at Grand Street Academy in Bushwick/Williamsburg. Here students create their own t-shirt brand which includes branding, marketing, promotion, production and selling of their own line of t-shirts which they design. Its a dope program with a bunch of dope students who I am really trying to educate about being entrepreneurs and owning

A few weeks ago Urban Arts Partnership and New Design High School produced a series of 4 Day intensive Workshops with students in grades 9-12. Teachers formed groups of 2 or 3 to co-teach a unique curriculum formulated on their artistic background and education background. I teamed up with Laura Rubin to teach a special Power to the People Poster Project.The Project consisted of 3 case studies

So I landed in the Bay Area last night, some say i'm the illegitimate son of the Bay due to my slang and constant presence out here. They are pretty right. I'm out here to do a couple events with the homies, you know spread the good word. I've been doing this for a couple years and have always loved how much better I breathe out here, how many more trees I see out here. The air is beautiful out

So this is it. A moment we have all been waiting for I guess. An African American becoming President of the United Snakes of America. Everybody is flocking to D.C. this weekend to be a part of history. Just so we can all answer the question - "Where were you when Obama became President?".I will not be there. Does that make me less of an artivist? Been really back and forth with this whole

From Gaza to Fruitvale, Oakland, 2009 is off to a social breaking start. Cultural annihilation is taking place in Gaza that is somewhat similar and also doesn't even compare to whats going down in America.

So I started this blog to be a manifestation of my inner musings, thoughts and social critiques. I adapted the term Conscious Hustler a few years ago and made a t-shirt design for my brand 1SOULDESIGNS that was very well received. I realized it was well received because I was not alone. There are more of us. We hustle in progressing our community the same way others hustle in the stunting of our
