When I perform spoken word, itâs not just my words Iâm speaking. Iâm lifting up the voices of my community. As I ask in one of the pieces I perform often: Am I my brotherâs keeper? Absolutely. â¦I keep my brothers for free. Thatâs the difference between me and too many politicians: I care for free. Meanwhile, Congress is full of people who figured out how to put a price on âprogress.â Me? I donât take bribes for freedom. I donât make trades for better tomorrows. In fact, I know a tribe thatâs not blinded by Mister / and canât be bought by the good old boysâ system. / And Iâve got your back â matter of fact / Iâve discerned the attack / I binded it up, and I sent it right the hell back. See, Iâm here to lead with love and integrity, but thatâs not a payment the system was built to take, {NAME}. So Iâm asking you to help lift my voice to tell a new story about what Congress can look like. [Right now, that means I need to raise $12,000 by tomorrow. I know for us regular people, thatâs a lot of money, so Iâm not asking lightly. But I do have to ask: Will you give whatever you can to help me bring my servant heart and poetâs mind to Congress, and truly make progress for the people? >>](~/AAPPAAA~/RgRn-t84P0TJaHR0cHM6Ly9zZWN1cmUuYWN0Ymx1ZS5jb20vZG9uYXRlL3RtLWdhLWVtP2Ftb3VudD0yNSZyZWZjb2RlPTIwMjQwNDExX2VtX2ZyX2IxX3BvZXRyeV9jbF9SUyZjZG1jPTJleHBmbEdiZ2VWNXJubmJOZG1JVnl1OGpOdyZyZWZjb2RlMj0yZXhwZmxHYmdlVjVybm5iTmRtSVZ5dThqTncmcmVmY29kZWNkbWM9MmV4cGZsR2JnZVY1cm5uYk5kbUlWeXU4ak53VwNzcGNCCmYQOFoYZmHKa-BSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkxQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAABUg~~) [DONATE $10](~/AAPPAAA~/RgRn-t84P0TJaHR0cHM6Ly9zZWN1cmUuYWN0Ymx1ZS5jb20vZG9uYXRlL3RtLWdhLWVtP2Ftb3VudD0xMCZyZWZjb2RlPTIwMjQwNDExX2VtX2ZyX2IxX3BvZXRyeV9jbF9SUyZjZG1jPTJleHBmbEdiZ2VWNXJubmJOZG1JVnl1OGpOdyZyZWZjb2RlMj0yZXhwZmxHYmdlVjVybm5iTmRtSVZ5dThqTncmcmVmY29kZWNkbWM9MmV4cGZsR2JnZVY1cm5uYk5kbUlWeXU4ak53VwNzcGNCCmYQOFoYZmHKa-BSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkxQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAABUg~~)
