 March 29, 2000 DECATUR--Congresswoman 
              Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) will host a workshop, Hip Hop Powershop 
              2000. This workshop is being designed to encourage young Hip Hoppers 
              to share their ideas about public policy, legislative, and community 
              issues. "We want to understand, listen and respond to our youth's 
              concerns," stated McKinney. Hip Hop PowerShop 2000 
              will feature a dialogue between new school and old school artists 
              who will discuss the meaning of their music and its significance.

              like to make your voice heard, then this workshop is for you. PowerShop 
              2000 will be held on Saturday, May 6, 2000, 9:00
