CONSCIOUS ABOUT OUR ENVIRONMENT WHICH IS BEING ATTACKED BY BIG BUSINESSESS WHO LOOK AT OUR NATURAL RESOURCES AS A WAY TO MAKE FINANCIAL PROFIT. EXXON MOBILE OIL SPILLS, THE DAKOTA ACCESS PIPELINE, MONSANTO, ALL CONFLICTING TO THE SPIRITUAL GODLINESS OF NATURE. I WISH THAT PPL WOULD WAKE UP AND STOP ALOWING THESE GREEDY COMPANIES TO CAPITALIZE ON WHAT WE ALL NEED TO SUSTAIN AND LIVE ON THIS BEAUTIFUL PLANET
How did you start your brand? Do you have any partners working with you? How can people reach you?
I STARTED MY EDUCATIONAL BRAND E.A.T (expressive art therapy) WITH MY HUSBAND WHILE WE WERE HOMELESS IN A BRONX SHELTER. SCULPTING NEWSPAPER INTO PAPER MACHETE ART AS A WAY TO COPE WITH DEPRESSION. WE WANTED TO CREATE OUR OWN CREATIVE ARTS PROGRAM, BUT LACKED THE FUNDING AT THE
TIME. So, I SOLD SOME OF MY ART PIECES AND POETRY ON THE TRAIN TO BUY ART SUPPLIES. WE SAT ON A BLANKET IN FRONT OF OUR BRONX HOMELESS SHELTER AND GAVE LIFE TO OUR MUSIC AND ARTS PROGRAM. OUR MUSIC AS ASHE' IS THE MAIN FOCUS. GETTING THE MESSAGE OUT THERE SO THAT PEOPLE CAN FIND SOLUTIONS TO OUR SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, and ECONOMIC CONFLICTS. It's BEST TO CONNECT WITH ME THROUGH FACEBOOK: ASHE' JAM BAND and also my art page FACEBOOK: SHAKIMONO
