The biggest lesson I learned last year was to give myself grace when I missed the mark. As we take stock of our progress so far in the New Year, let's be gentle with ourselves. And even If you've already fallen short, just remember: Everything Will Be Alright.
Change by definition is a difficult process... emphasis on process. Much like a caterpillar wrapped in itscocoon, it's uncomfortable. It often requires going inward and takes time and dedicated effort to pull off. It can mean isolating yourself from the environment you're used to.
If I'm being honest, I've always been intrigued by the villains in movies and books so when A.J. presented us with his idea for a video involving a plot to kill an undercover cop I was in. But of course, nothing the LxVE Collective does is bland. So instead of just telling the story, we told the story in reverse.
In this powerful collaboration between Alfred Nomad & The K.O.O.L Life, the two use clips from real news stories to illustrate the injustices still taking place in America.
