Here's M1 of Dead Prez speaking out on Haitians refugess' current political status. "Do you recognize the misery under this system? Just because the people want to determine a life for themselves that's better. I imagine there's some Haitian people that would throw some Kreyol on your ass right now President Obama if they could talk to you."
He goes on to say, "We gotta be organized and willing to fight together." You'll get your chance this Friday, September 18 from 3 - 7 p.m. at the Historic Virginia Key Beach Park. That's where Mary Lee Hill, a 16-year-old black girl from Overtown, set in motion the chain of events that led to its becoming the first legal "colored beach" in Dade County."
