This is Part Two of our ‘Exclusive’ web interview with Afeni Shakur-Davis, mother of the late hip hop icon, poet, actor, and social activist Tupac Shakur (2Pac).
In the second part of the interview Afein Shakur-Davis goes into Pac’s Kids and the summer camps, the publishing of Tupac hip hop music, the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation, a normal day for Afeni Shakur-Davis and life on her organic farm. She also tells us her favorite Tupac (2Pac) tracks, music and the remains of Tupac’s ashes. We also ask what she would like Afeni Shakur-Davis’ Legacy to be. She also speaks to the young people and gives direction to them.
Most notably you will hear that she asks for help. Not for herself, she is a giving person, but help to finish the Center for the Arts. The Foundation and the Arts Center are dear to her and she needs help to finish them and preserve them for future generations.
This is a side of Afeni Shakur-Davis that is rarely seen or heard. She did the phone interview from her home and she was comfortable. She was in her element and it is obvious that she is most comfortable at home.
The Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation and Center for the Arts are not only part of hip hop’s Legacy and the Legacy of Tupac Shakur but they will become apart of Afeni Shakur-Davis’ Legacy as well. And it is time for everyone to step up and help her finish what she and the family have started.
Tupac touched the entire world, not only as a hip hop artist or a rap lyricist but as a person who recognized the wrongs in the world and he was not afraid to point them out; and the entire world should be interested in seeing the Center for the Arts finished and the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation flourish.
The children are depending on all of us to help finish this project and support it so the magnificent work they do can not only go on, but can grow and produce the leaders of tomorrow. An investment in TASF or The Center for the Arts is an investment in our future.
We hope you enjoy this interview with Hip Hop’s most famous MOMMA, Afeni Shakur-Davis. But most of all we hope and pray that you will answer Afeni’s plea for help and respond with any donation you can afford to the Center for the Arts, so it can be finished.
