Whatever doesn’t make it to the press ends up here. That means all her rants, raves, observations and musings on life in all it’s random glory. A wise man once said that writers write about what they know.
Here is what Navani Knows…
Navani, what do you think of hip hop’s role in politics, particularly the 2008 election b/t Obama and McCain? And which candidate, do you believe, best represents the culture and why?
Very insightful question, heh?
Hi Navani!
Hi Navani,
I was just checking out your page. It’s great. Keep up the great work.
How’s the GOD treating you these days? i ran across your wordpress site and i am very intrested on your outlook between Blackfolks and Brownfolks needing to forge a dialogue between the two. Well i have a tshirt line here in fort worth texas that i”m in the process of working out the kinks on and i would love to work with you on some things becasue the tees will be exclusively celebrating Black and Brownfolks thru various phrases and i would love some help on the Brown side of it, if you will.
Your New Friend,
