Why I’m Here

DRP uses art to awaken social consciousness and is based in Chicago, IL and Austin, TX. DRP has organized concerts, festivals and events all tied into using artistic endeavors as a catalyst to create positive social change.  They believe that artistic mediums have the unique ability to bring together the masses while channeling the energy to elevate the collective consciousness and make a positive impact on the world. Angela Rose, co-founder of DRP, is a nationally recognized grassroots activist who has orchestrated simultaneous action to shatter the silence of violence in over 50 cities across the country her work has been covered by CNN, The Today Show, and in TIME.
