Michael Franti & Spearhead Hey World Don't Give Up

Inspirational music from Franti & Spearhead.

Franti is also an advocate for peace in the Middle East. His film I Know I'm Not Alone features footage of Iraq, the territories within the Palestinian Authority, and Israel. In 2006, he was invited by Australian MP Jenny Macklin to show the film at Australia's Parliament House, Canberra.
Franti is a vegan.
In an anti-poverty protest, Franti decided not to wear any shoes, initially for three days, and never went back. Except for occasionally wearing crocs on an airplane or in a restaurant, Franti has been walking through life barefoot since 2000.

  • I think I went to high school with this guy (maybe it was the other guy in the disposable heroes) did he go to high school in Davis, Ca?

    

  • @Fraeg According to wiki he was born in Oakland and lived with adoptive parents in Oakland CA. So you may very well have gone to high school with him.

    Cool you actually know Franti was in Disposable Heroes a lot of people don't.
