¡Menos Policia y Mas Diversion! The plan is to embark on a 3 week tour to spread art and musical color through cities and small towns from LA to the Bay, specifically in communities with little or no access to creation. Each stop, there will be a workshop on people's propaganda and guerilla theater as a tactic to engage young people toward revolution. Workshops can take place anywhere from a small garage to a squat to a community center. Apart from workshops, we want to book as many shows as we can to share some songs and sing with people wherever we go. To do this, we need to raise money for supplies as well as money for travel/food etc. Help us make this dream possible and help us spread color to this world. "Hermanos y hermanas de otras razas, de otro color, pero con el mismo corazón."
