My original spec music video for two of my favorite unreleased M.I.A. tracks from her 2007 album "Kala." This piece features no professional actors and zero crew members - just a group of young people coming together to raise an important question:

WHAT ARE ALL WE FIGHTING FOR?

Or better yet, what are we killing over? Peace is only attainable if we initiate the change now, in open minds, sympathetic hearts, and positive spirits. It seems like nowadays everyone's carrying around an invisible weapon, ready to fire at will. This world doesn't have to end at the hands of the few who aim to bring it down. It can progress by the ideals of the many who want to secure a better tomorrow for the next generation.

Check out these sites dedicated to organizing humanitarian efforts concerning current world atrocities The very least we should be is informed:

  • Dude. This is awesome. Not just the idea, but the execution (I mean, they way you guys put this video together). This is really awesome and totally creative, not to mention a great idea you guys are trying to convey. We, as the next generation, are the future. To see teens doing this is really inspiring to all the teens and young adults who feel like hope might be lost. If we want peace, we have to be the generation of peace. As Bob Sinclair says, "Be the Love Generation."

  • Great Video!!! powerful message.
