I know that by now, most of you have heard of the tragic killing of Sean Paul Aquitania and his 7 mo old baby, which took place last friday. I am writing you today to ask for your help and support in my efforts to bring together a fund raising event for the family.
I have already been in contact with both urban radio stations KSFM and KBMB. I plan to get the NAACP involved as well as church leaders and the Sheriff’s Dept. My plan for this event would be a daytime event, preferably at a park such as Cesar Chavez, Carmichael, or Elk Grove Park. It is time for the hip-hop community within Sacramento to show not only our communities support, but also show our political leaders that we are not just negative influences on our city streets. We have a voice that is much greater than most within the surrounding communities within Sacramento, and it is my goal to bring a change in attitude. It is my goal to "BE THE FACE OF CHANGE".
I have reached out to numerous artists who are ready and willing to participate in this event, and send a message to those who committed this crime, those who are not coming forward with information, and our concerned communities that even as rap artists, enough is enough. This is our time and our chance to make our voices heard in a positive manner. It is our time to show these streets that even as neighborhoods are divided, we are grown enough and intelligent enough to come together for the greater good of peace for our streets. To be the examples that they look up to, and show them a better way. It is our time.
I hope that I can get your blessing and support with this event. Not only do the families of the victims need to know that their communities are behind them in this time of grief, but also that they are trying to do their part in bringing awareness and justice.
Anyone who is able to play their part in making this event not only happen, but become a success, please email me with your contact info and how you plan to contribute to the cause. I thank everyone of you who has taken the time to read this, and thank you even more for those trying to help.
