A Change Gonna Come

February 4, 2010

Dear Activists, Artists and Citizens – when Sam Cooke sang these words, he did so boldly and with deep urgency. The time has come for anyone who is truly dedicated to justice to speak up. Art is one of many ways to make your voice heard and, I believe, one of the most powerful. In this issue of For the 44th on the 4th, Emcee Galactus Prime and Ru Johnson speak.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

EMCEE GALACTUS PRIME.

Member of The Intergalactic Fighters (www.myspace.com/intergalacticfighters). Metaphysical alter-ego of Jason Lalor, born-again artist. Reconnecting with old muses, discovering new ones, trying to escape the Corporate World while navigating the Real World. I rap, draw and design to keep myself healthy. Hi Mommy. Whatup Jon.

RU JOHNSON

is a writer, music journalist, essayist and student of life. In her perfect world, concrete would be red and car engines would sound like the opening riffs to ‘Stillmatic.’ She believes in love, magic and copious amounts of nail polish.
