A friend sent this to me last night on Facebook and I was so inspired. Learn more about the Lost Lyrics program below:

Lost Lyrics is part of a movement. Created in response to unimaginative teachers, negative labels and boring classes, Lost Lyrics is the alternative…rooted in the search for self-determination.Hip Hop culture is the inspiration and tool utilized to break down the images, pressures, and issues our young people face. Based in Toronto, Canada together we create our own road-map, somewhere between the streets and the classroom, pushing young minds to engage, speak and rebel…but still graduate.

Below is the Lost Lyrics trailer the opening scene features an excerpt from one of d’bi young’s poems that we covered in our Blueprint class! It also includes moments in class, our kids marching at the 2009 No One is Illegal rally, our show The Live Report Card at The… Drake Hotel and more beautiful moments.

Congratulations to Amanda Parris & the team for running such a succesful program !
