The North Pole is Coming Soon. Help Make It Happen!

February 5, 2017 - Feature - Tagged: , , , - no comments

So yeah. I wrote a web series. It’s called The North Pole.

And I can’t wait for you to see it.

Based here in Oakland, this is a political comedy that hits on all the big issues: Gentrification. Global Warming. And yes, Gluten-Free Donuts.

Directed by my creative partner Yvan Iturriaga, produced by myself alongside my friends at Movement Generation, The North Pole features cameos from groundbreaking artists and activists like W. Kamau Bell, Boots Riley, Mistah FAB, and Black Panther hero Ericka Huggins.

I’ve never worked so hard or been so proud of a project like this. Many of you here have helped get it this far — thank you! And now I’m asking for one more small piece of help.

Today we just launched our Kickstarter campaign. We need to raise $25,000 in the next 4 weeks to cover final production costs.

Would you be down to donate and/ spread the word this week?

This is a show for the people, by the people — and the polar bears. Whatever you can give would be beyond appreciated. For real, for real.

Stay tuned here for more updates on The North Pole. And in the meantime, keep protesting at airports. Keep fighting fascism. And keep finding joy in these crazy times.

Joy is a weapon, too. So sharpen your humor, my friends. We’re going to need it.
