Grind For The Green (G4G): Is the first of an annual summer eco-music festival produced by and for youth in the San Francisco Bay Area. More than just a showcase for local talent, Grind For The Green provides a framework and an applied learning environment where youth from the hip-hop generation build business acumen and technical skills very necessary for professional advancement. Hundreds of participants had the opportunity to take part in all events, which included artist development workshops, jobs, internships and educational opportunities rooted in an environmental justice framework. Conscious Youth Media Crew collaborated with Grind For The Green to document each festival and conference event and edited it into a short documentary showcasing the experience of the youth who organized and participated in the events. This video will be up soon for your comments!
