Michael Franti
Michael Franti is a gifted and heralded spoken word artist and political activist. As leader of the politically and socially-charged group Spearhead, Franti is at the forefront of hip-hop’s renaissance, expanding the music’s boundaries as he draws on funk and soul-driven beats. Through his music and poetry, Franti tackles a range of issues-the criminal justice system, corporatization of our daily lives, AIDS, gay rights, homelessness, the death penalty, drug addiction and suicide. For the past four years Franti has produced the annual “Power to the Peaceful” festival, which draws over 20,000 people to Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. Franti and Spearhead always have open arms to Conscious Alliance at this socially conscious festival as well at any of their other events.
