Tell Some Body ...


1291080183-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=37 Almost a year in the making 'Mystified' is now being exposed to the online world.

The music video project is aptly termed "Hip Hope" because of its realistic approach to dealing with Rape and Incest, and its immediate goal of delivering hope.

It brings together a Wordsmith, Rapper, and Songstress to tell the compelling story of one family coming to terms with this issue.

The project was developed and produced in and around Oakland and its ultimate purpose is to link Survivors to counseling or support -- right now.

The reviews are great and compel the team to keep pushing and getting the word out. In the words of Mr. Habi: "Tell Some Body ..."

You can see the video here. 1289964123-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=36 History was made a short time ago when over 3500 Americans came together as a result of the work of hundreds of committed "believers in the power of democracy".

Dedoceo Habi was one of them.

The results are in and can be viewed email... We would enjoy hearing from you. 1278078160-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=35 For the last four months there has been a growing number of Americans working together to have a day of discussion and dialog around the National budget and Economy.

1276656975-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=34 We are happy to announce our recent collaboration with San Francisco's Jones Memorial United Methodist Church on the creation of the JUMP / PREP promotional video for Youth Accelerated Learning. The program is an after school tutorial program and it represents an integrated approach to teaching children how to learn better.

The project will help the JUMP / PREP program leadership raise greater awareness of their efforts in the community, draw attention to their innovative and dynamic approach to learning, and secure funding for their effort to expand the program while at the same time become more sustainable.

The children in the program perform at higher levels as compared to children that do not. Educators benefit in a number of ways including: less stress in the teaching environment, greater student classroom participation, elevated student confidence, and higher levels of interest in classwork on the part of the students.

Additionally, because students have a greater appreciation for learning, they are much more likely to retain lessons, share what they have learned with other students -- and family -- and develop better study habits.

The promotional video can be seen by following this link. 1234857555-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=33 We are pleased to announce the working collaboration between here. 1231119452-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=32 awareness around Violence Prevention/Intervention and we are excited by the prospect of using this project to draw attention not only to what happens in many communities, but -- more importantly -- what we can do to prevent violence.

Stay tuned for updates and more scene snapshots. 1221093957-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=31 Dedoceo Habi presented his film,fearful TRUTH to a convention of over 250 United Methodist Church leaders at the 41st Annual Meeting of the Black Methodist For Church Renewal event in Los Angeles.

The film was well received and sparked powerful conversations around the role of the Church in the fight to end HIV/AIDS.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters was the keynote speaker and stressed that Churches must recognize the power they have in the community and must be part of the solution in reclaiming our communities.

The final product will be presented at the school and other neighborhood centers to inform the community on the issues and problems with crime prevention in the community, and what can be done to make things better. Student participants will be exposed to the film making process and will accompany staff to editing sessions, as applicable. We will air the final project on local televised programming. 1204866119-06:00 http://www.mindworksnet.org//blog.php?ID=29 You can go directly to our on line order form to place your order for fearful TRUTH.
