Tupac’s mom Afeni Shakur, may have said it best, or in the words of the illustrious Afeni Shakur, "As long as you keep 2PAC's vision, his music, and his memory alive. His spirit will not die. I believe it still in the best of my heart. You can kill a revolutionary, but you cannot kill a revolution. I want to encourage you to keep loving, keep creating, keep making music, keep dancing and keep living." - Afeni Shakur.
“Tupac had and continues to have a bright light of energy. I also see similar energy in the eyes of young and mature black men. May their light communicate that you do not have to dim someone else's light to shine your light.” – Producer & Director Tracy Danielle Robinson.
