1000 Africans Partying for a Good Cause
Written by Shirlene Alusa-Brown Interview by Shirlene Alusa-Brown | June 29, 2008 |
There is a revolution going on in the diaspora where people are using entertainment to help build economic development on the continent of Africa. Omega Bugemebe Okello raises money for surgical beds by singing in benefit concerts and Riz donates money from some of his albums to raise money for a water charity. A new group of men has come up with an innovative way to raise money for different needs on the continent–partying for a good cause. Stephen Munabo and Kevin Ousman from the organization Men from Africa, granted Jamati an interview to talk about the creative way they aim to make a difference in the lives of Africans in the diaspora, and on the continent.
What does the campaign mean!
