2:54 pm
strenuous and it's aggravating like, wow, all this stuff available for people to do nobody cares. nobody is into the so we're definitely calling out to the let's pour in. we were opening up so many activation spaces. yeah. this opened up a space for kids. it's caught on places. michael's, it's a studio, but it's basically like a. a curator content zone where we give the kids free studio time for them to come record, you know, to get them off the streets, are we don't? we're not charging the we push that. we don't and it's a lot of us out there that are doing the work. but then it's also a lot of people that are just watching it will. thank you so much for you know it your hard work on elevate the city of oakland and the east bay and >> if you tell us a bit about going back to this event that's happening tonight, it's not at full capacity. yes, so people still have an opportunity to learn more information come out and support. so tell us a bit how many tickets at how about how much are tickets going for so
2:55 pm
it's like i think they're going to be i-40 $1 at the door. still buy tickets at the door. >> the beauty of and the importance of this is in activations of spaces like this were able to collect so many different people from different worlds, a diverse world as well last week and amplify the work force we bring in. it's a boost to the economy. we have vendors that are coming so we have chefs that are doing pop ups there. you know, security and a lot of thing. we're bringing money into the community as well as when there's money in the community. crime goes down just based on the fact people. they're not scavenging for survival. so we're bringing in these activations and we're opening them up to so many different people. so there's interior design as people have come out to build stages. people that have say at the floor there fashion design. you know, a lot of things are coming into the community when we do these and we're having a great time entertainment taken away from the violence in the negativity that is hanging over. oakland is a black super
2:56 pm
dark, calm down and we want to be able to remove that. the show people look, this is not it's not that bad. i'm not going to be naive in get up here and lie and say, oh, it's it's it's a peaceful city. it's you >> what do you think needs to change in the city of oakland change and to also adjust that perception that's out there >> i think the activation of of of the leadership of them taking the initiative to understand what we're up. againts. you know, there can't be any days off. we have to realize that this is a everyday thing. to activate spaces for these kids, the fop. and so we can have things for not only for the u but for adults for individuals or businesses. businesses are suffering a stuff. people don't even want to come patronize with what i have for businesses in and you know, and things are below average of what they would normally just based off the fact that people like on want to park and want to get my car broken to or i want to get
2:57 pm
robbed. so the activation of leadership of the local governing boards, i think that we have to be more proactive and what we're doing in these activation spaces we have to engage in the community are cultural strategist need to be on the forefront of what's going on. what's happening and we need to have somebody inside of that infrastructure. who's on the weekly planning bases of saying let's get behind this. let's support this. let's open up this. how can we make ourselves it's it's deeper than politics. i don't like, you know, i don't get into the politics side of things. so that's not my thing. my thing is i'm a people to shun. i'm not a some out what the people so you anything that's for the people by the with it. >> so a question for the people to shun. is how can people get more information about your event that's happening today? if they want to come of it, right? don't care of its on event. brite. >> that are non profit. we have a nonprofit organization that has just been established. it's called the liberty inn legacy you can
2:58 pm
find out more information about that. the liberty legacy era dot org and and is just about what we're doing. the juvenile program opens up next week. we have a built-in a hole in the music program for the kids that are in juvenile hall. i'm definitely looking forward to and the mental health wellness things that we've been we've been pulling off. we've been doing with a mental health wellness seminars last last week. we have 400 people come out free events for mental so we're working. we're active in the and we just that we're actually everybody that that interest it come join us comes out. you want to make a difference in the city, not just oakland, san francisco, all around the bay area. let's make a difference. list are coming together. conflating our ideas making a difference in being the difference. alright, mistah fab, thank you so much for your time. thank so much for your time. thank you so much. have a great
