Trailer:
AOKI is a documentary film chronicling the life of Richard Aoki (1938-2009), a third-generation Japanese American who became one of the founding members of the Black Panther Party. Filmed over the last five years of Richard’s life, this documentary features extensive footage with Richard and exclusive interviews with his comrades, friends, and former students. Viewers will learn about Richard’s childhood in a WWII Japanese American concentration camp, growing up in West Oakland, and serving eight years in the U.S. military. The film explores previously unknown facts about the formation of the Black Panther Party such as how Richard became intimately involved in its founding and contributed the first two firearms to the Party. AOKI highlights how Richard’s leadership also made a significant impact on individuals and groups in the contemporary Asian American Movement. Richard’s contributions to the groundbreaking organization Asian American Political Alliance (AAPA) and its involvement in the Third World Liberation Front (TWLF) student strike led to the formation of ethnic studies at U.C. Berkeley. Above all else, AOKI is a film that demonstrates the incredible dedication to justice that one man’s life has had and how the lessons of solidarity, commitment, and discipline can carry on from one generation to the next.

New album by theOTHERSIDE, From The Ground Up, released by one of my homies from Salinas (Keno). I remember when this fool used to record himself freestyling with a Filipino accent in the dark using night vision lol. He’s definitely come a LONG way from there. The tracks on this album, produced by Wallsauce, are filled with amazing samples. And the lyrics are definitely on point. $4.99 is a small price to pay to support Indie Hip-Hop.
“The Otherside’s highly anticipated debut album, From The Ground Up. A collection of soul sampled beats produced by Wallsauce complimented by Kenos savage yet intoxicating flows.”
