Oy!

     Get money out of politics! Yes, sir! I like the sound of this. Tomorrow, i will be doing a shoot for an organization that is in solidarity with the 99%, aka Occupy Los Angeles. I've been in involved with the occupation since day one, it's been  hell of a ride.. I became part of their actions committee as an organizer and blogged for their social media team. Every weekend i lived, worked, slept, and ate at City Hall. We dealt with a lot of crap. I realized how fucked up our government was at six-teen; the lies they feed through the media; the debt trap our government has implemented on our country through a central banking system; the constant fear mongering, and our failed political system led me to rebel. I had been waiting years for something like this to come along, i couldn't pass up the opportunity! Occupy has opened up many doors for me: I built strong relationships with people, I developed more organizational skills, and it guaranteed me a spot in a video campaign for "Get Money Out of Politics" by the 99%! Occupy has inspired me to speak up and make my voice be heard. For the first time ever, i was in a studio with make-up on (which made me feel weird), and lots of cameras. My message was simple: 
If money is running our country and the rich man's root of greed is money, then wouldn't it be safe to say that most of our ruling elite care about their personal agendas rather then our well being. Take a look at skid row and other projects across the country - I'm not being the judge here, I'm just observing the world we live in and i must say, it's pretty horrendous. We have a say in it, however. We can make the change ourselves by speaking up for ourselves. The change starts with you!
