A Note from Rob Jackson:
What an amazing ride. Some people really like the work- some are very critical. As my buddy Rainbow likes to say the magic of the music is not the technical accuracy, it is the emotion and what we have to say. We really want to license a few this year for film so please refer us if you can! Mr. T. Draper offered lead guitar on a track called Dust-epic!
I would really like to get the Rogers Water's Tribute song titled No Wall done. Samuel Jackson's people were silent when I replied specifically to his call for a track about police brutality that tracks titled Brutality. I guess he did not even hear it. KPIG radio told me to send that track, but I'm late. I also declined to open for Muse....long story but unless I can quit my day job I can't really be prepared for stadiums. I would need 2M to safely quit the day job.
My love for the planet is forcing me to slowly unleash my commerical products to build capital that will fund the larger programs in the planning stages now. The book and research I am working on supports a historic lawsuit filed by a group Called My Childrens Trust. If we need to appeal thr U.S. Supreme courts pending decision or retalitate againt nonesense- this would possible be the best research to draw upon to make the case for accountability and broad reforms in the USA. I truely beleive we can and must be held to higher standards to preserve and improve quality of life issues for present and future generations. All this kicking the can and self serving BS needs to go. Greed gets us nowhere in life, neighter does ignorance.
Now I am begining to invite the community to back me . Please see the community Investment link. Volunteer if you can. Margete Mead said it best- "never doubt a small group can change the world- indeed it is the only thing that ever has". I refuse to be a victim in one of the most destructive systems of the world- they tried killing me several times already-psychopath jerks. Please accept my plea for Global Amnesty and my apologies for what the U.S. has done around the world that we really should not have done- especially in Gaza and many Middle and far East and to native Americans.
Thanks for standing with us to make the world a better place!

Status: The Album titled Shot by Bad Slave was censored due to title. Long story short Rob boycotted CBS radio for two years. His only live show was cancelled in Oakland after encountering racist owners that told him that because they percieved Rob a as a white person, he was not allowed the use the words "BAD SLAVE". The context he was using the words was about his own experience being treated in unfair ways in a classist/ heirarchical system. Other harse criticism was noted from outlets that previously embraced Rob's music. For the record Rob identifies as part Sioux by adoption. His view is that racism is established by the false conditioning that race even exists. If you love people for being different as they are, that is the best way to combat hate and reject all superioity theory, which is a lie on its face. The socialogical invention of race only serves to divide and is an ancient war tactic myth. All one needs to do is reject it. Of course that does not dismiss all the suffering caused by the people that suffer from oppresion and discimination or prejudice in its many forms, but one step forward for humanity is to use love to reject lies and work on bias within each one of us. Refuse to be a catalyst for systems of heirarchy and you can see the hatred only serves to divide- which is a complete illusion and lie. Love is a big part of the solution and healing. However, Rob's work is gaining acceptance regardless the censorship. He accepted a Panthers challenge that white's can't suffer racism by documenting a legal case that occured in Hawaii when an attorney was harrassed for having a white boyfriend by natives. The case highlights how when modeling racist systems and adopting those bad behaviors everyone is vulnerable to be victims. Rob also denounced the current position of Black Panthers that barr white looking people from joining. While empathetice to arguments that at times whites need to not be present, he still argues only as native leaders have envisioned thru unity will be overcome the opprressors which today come in all colors, but generally are in the global capitalist movements that concentrate wealth and promote unsustainable , even mass violence to concentrate wealth. Having suffered dramatic censorship after posting Black lives matters recommendation he made to the Obama adminsitration, he finds the lack of unity in the community ironic and prehaps even a warning sign of needed healing.
Street Team Captain and volunteers interested in global urban centers are following the plan to get the music out. We use the Musicians Atlas and other resources to ID targets and first level network referrals. The aim is to start to license songs in commercial arena. We have a weekly spot with Mutiny Radio in SF we can refer spoke persons to with our Common Thread Collective partnership facilitated by world renown poet/activist Diamond Dave, (SF).
