2dopeboyz, unkut, on smash /

and fraud’s 38th notes, embarrass that ass /

oh word, okay player, nah right, dont bother /
im sicka than average, youre something like a rapper /
go paint the world pink, youre just a nod factor /
im the calm and the kaos effect, day in the lyfe /
work harder, up north trips, to dr. jay’s live /
real talk ny, sucker free, that real ish /
mbc digi, necole bitchie even feel this.

About AIM

(As written by AIM.)

The Anti-Injustice Movement (aka The AIM) is a global movement of activists, political emcees and protest poets who are fighting together to achieve the slow but steady destruction of global injustice. We struggle via non-violent and creative means against injustices perpetrated by corrupt governments, political and fundamentalist factions of organized religion, and corporate vampires. To do this we utilize the five elements of hip-hop (knowlege being the fifth), protest poetry, and grassroots campaigning as a means of awarenes raising and political revolt. We are against Western Militarism, Political Islam, and Zionism in equal measure and will combat them all because we refuse to choose between three evils.

We have no overall political affilation as a movement although one could say our flavour is distinctly libertarian, but what we do share is a determination to create a just, tolerant, and equal society which values both human and animal rights. We will fight against all forms of oppression and discrimination because we believe that regardless of one’s sex, race, sexual preference, religion, or culture, we should all have the same basic universal rights (this includes freedom of speech and expression). We are against the US death penalty, the ‘allies’ oil driven wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and for freedom in Palestine. Nevertheless we oppose the barbaric Islamic regimes in countries like Iran and Saudi Arabia, and stand with the people against these militant religious oppressors. We are a secular organization that is comprized of people of different theological beliefs but we are all for the seperation of religion and politics, and vehemently oppose political and fundamentalists elements of organized religion. Thus we protest against Sharia and other faith based laws, faith schools, and any religious practices which are discriminative, intolerant, or violate human or animal rights. We seek to maintain freedom of religion and also freedom from religion. However we contend that human and animal rights trump religious expression because they are essential to the foundations of any civillized and just society.

We also oppose corporate amorality in it’s many forms and stand up for animal rights, equal rights in the workplace, environmental ethics, fair trade and against child and forced labour. We boycott and raise awareness about any companies who are engaging in any forms of unethical practice.

We will also attempt to deprogramme the minds of those who have been lulled into sedation by the soothing lies that surround us because apathy is no longer an option. The time has come to stand up, throw your fist in the air and pledge to take AIM for the ethical revolution.

[AIM uses Campaigning, Direct Action, Underground Hip Hop, Protest Poetry, Academic Articles, Awareness Raising and Networking to peacefully combat the rise of theocracy within secular democracies; Sharia and other faith based laws; female inequality within religions and the wider society; homophobia within religion and the wider society; racism within religion and the wider society; the indoctrination of children through faith schools; discrimination against those who reject religion; all forms of animal cruelty, and particularly vivisection; and corporations and companies who engage in unethical practices (against humans, animals or the environment).]
