A new hip-hop video celebrates the Occupy Movement, which has taken the world by storm. Omekongo "The UPstander" Dibinga composed the new song "Occupy ALL Streets", which was created into a mini-movie by his brother Said. Says Omekongo: "I have been proud to participate in the Occupy Movement. Through my involvement however, I have noticed that there was not a strong involvement from the hip-hop community. I felt it was necessary to make a contribution in the name of hip-hop and in the name of UPstander International. The video can can be viewed here. Omekongo is the UPstander. He is an award-winning artist who uses his skills as a speaker, poet, and musician to inspire positive change across the globe. His work has been televised in over 150 countries. He was selected by CNN as one of 5 people out of 750,000 to receive the first ever "iReport Spirit Award" for his video commentary. For more information, please visit www.upstanderinternational.com.
