I've been looking for this one video of Mos at the Jena 6 rally for awhile, and I finally found it! Plus a little bonus I also found so check them out:
But wait, there's more!
This is all 100% REAL! Where is everybody?? What was everybody doing that was so important that they couldn't show up?? Its one thing if you're a regular person with a job, but if you have a private jet, or go to all the Hollywood and Hampton parties you should have been there! There is no excuse and I commend Mos Def for standing up for what's right. Let's get free!

Mychael Bell Is Finally Freed!
I wanted to post this early, but my mom fell and sprained her knee so I was at the hospital watching CNN when Mychael Bell was released on $45,000 bail Thursday afternoon. This is great news, but unfortunately 10 months late and only the first step in justice being served for the Jena 6. You can read the AP story, as posted by MSN, below:
Mychael Bell Released From Jail!
You know, even though he is out I'm STILL pissed that this even happen in the first place. UNBELIEVABLE!

"Racism Still Alive, They Just Be Concealin' It" Not Anymore Kanye...
You might be familiar with that lyric in the title as recited by Kanye West on The College Dropout's Never Let Me Down featuring Jay-Z. The lyric was true at the time, but that was 2004, this is 2007 and they are NOT concealing shit anymore! Now, I would get into this Jena 6 stuff, but it just pisses me off every time I think about it so instead of a proper transition I'll just give you the link to the article that just ruined my night:

VICTORY IN JENA!
Great news, if you haven't heard they dropped the charges against Mychael Bell in that bullshit case that is so blatantly racist its sickening! Well I don't wanna talk about it because thats just one of the 6 boys so its just gonna get me mad because we still have a long way to go in this. Here's the whole AP news report.
