    Posted project update #6

    Thanks so much everyone!!!!

    So there will be no Prague this summer but there is always next summer!

    Your cards will not be charged. I was looking forward to sharing my physical art with you...but....everything has it's time and place.

    Anyway...my love for documenting people and the amazing stories that they tell does not stop here. I am leaving for Nigeria today to continue this project. I will be documenting hip-hop internationally for quite a while with every opportunity that I get.

    I plan to go to Sierra Leone, the land of my family, in December - I'm thinking of doing another kickstarter for that one...hopefully you all will share the love again. (just put your pledges in a CD until then LOL! Just kidding.)

    I plan to create a book + film + curricular unit/activities for students.

    I will keep you all posted.

    Thanks again for the support.

    Peace and Blessings.

    Delphine

    stay tuned to www.ilovehiphop.net

    I will begin posting mid-august when I return from Nigeria...
