To those of you who participated in the FREE IMAM JAMIL FREE 'EM ALL MEDIA CAMPAIGN WEEK from August 18th thru 25th, we both thank and congratulate you.
We, as a team, confirmed participation with over seventy-five media professionals and produced more than fifty media products that will continue to be used as educational tools. We also received overwhelming voiced support for our strategic objective to build a global network of like-minded media professionals.

The struggle demands that we intensify our efforts. The MEDIA CAMPAIGN is extended for two weeks beginning on Friday September 20th through Saturday October 5th. This is being done to turn up the attention for the upcoming conference organized and initiated by the RE-LEARNING RAP COLLECTIVE hosted by IJAN (the Imam Jamil Action Network) in conjunction with MXGM (the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement). The conference is entitled 'RE-LEARNING H. RAP BROWN', scheduled to be held in Atlanta, GA on October 4th & 5th, 2019.
