Water for Life
Submitted by Aiesha Cummings on Fri, 12/01/2006 - 2:02pm.
After watching the “Water for Life” documentary featuring rap artist Jay-Z, I felt great knowing that the hip-hop community may really become another avenue for educating the public on the issue of the right to water.
Jay-Z is one of the most influential artists in the world and by him making the focus of his first world tour “Water for Life," I think he took the awareness to a whole new group of people who may have never learned of the issue otherwise. Because his fan base is so diverse and international, I really believe he is making a huge difference by capturing the much needed attention of the youth worldwide.
I have great confidence in Jay-Z’s ability to inspire, motivate, encourage, and support real issues that affect real people. I believe that he will continue to raise awareness by using the many avenues in which he has created for himself which includes entertainment, clothing, and merchandise.
I expect to see more from Jay-Z in the near future as I believe that this is just the beginning for him. I really hope that people in the United States and around the world embrace his efforts as they would any community leader, politician, or president. I urge people to support the efforts of Jay-Z as well as any human being who is fighting for this much-needed change.
Find more information on what Jay-Z is doing. These pages list ways for the public to get involved and support this important and powerful movement. Bookmark these pages and check them at least once a week to keep up with what’s going and now and what will be happening in the future.
