Movement Detected

When I was taking drum set lessons with Brett Deptula, he would emphasize this point: if the audience isn’t physically moving then you have not done your job as a drummer.

So when I detect movement, I find it significant. Movement tells me that people are having a physical response to something that they have seen or heard.

If you need a call to action listen to Bianca Blu Lazuli in this clip:

The Carry On Movement started by community advocate / artist / designer Jai Hudson was recently featured on RandomLengthsNews.com for showing up boots on the ground to resist and counter yt supremacy in Huntington Beach CA. In the article there is a description provided: “Carry On describes itself as a movement that functions as a role model for what a democracy looks like. It holds symposiums during demonstrations and strives to set an example of how the system should work. It is anti-racist, anti-fascist, and anti-Imperialist.” I encourage you to click through and read that article in full and then see how you want to make your next move.

Jai also produces an online show called Beyond Tha Bottom Line where he interviews creators.

Recently, he also dropped this short film/documentary of the 24 hour nationwide anti-racist protest:
