The direction towards<br />non-violence begins with<br />actress to quality information<br />that is generated from the<br />most respected source in<br />prison subculture.<br /><br />The LGBTQAI+ Movement in<br />America is an amazing<br />lesson, however, the<br />new generation are not<br />provided access to information<br />about the existence of<br />same-sex presence in a<br />historical Mexico, Russia,<br />Ireland, Spain, Africa,<br />India, Islam, Christianity,<br />Sports, Dance, hip hop, and<br />everywhere there is a<br />MIRROR.<br /><br />SMS is the change, because<br />the broadcast provides a<br />greater interest to engage<br />LGBTQAI+ groups, programs,<br />and the freedom for one<br />to change his mind about<br />disrespectful conduct towards<br />an irrefutable mirror.<br /><br />This work is dedicated to<br />Karl - Maria Kertben, that<br />coined the words Homosexual,<br />and Heterosexual for a<br />specific reason that some how<br />become lost and removed<br />from LGBTQAI+ labels today.<br />Silence gives consent<br />- F. Smith<br /><br />[image]<br /><br />da'Vent segments of SMS<br />programming was created<br />to set the tone for the<br />urban perspective presence<br />of our culture.<br /><br />Primarily made up of instrumental<br />type beats that directly<br />reflect inner city culture,<br />in my past life, I'm known<br />for.<br /><br />As the former lead singer songwriter<br />and DJ for EXTENDED VERSION,<br />a 1990's Hip Hop R&B Dance<br />crew, it was obvious that<br />nobody would ever guess that<br />one of us in our crew was<br />gay, or that more of us<br />associated with out Hip Hop<br />society identified as<br />same sex loving people, and<br />the music and dance allowed<br />all of us to be simply ourselves<br /><br />With the program we call<br />da'Vent, we did our best to<br />make sure that writers,<br />rappers, dancers, artist<br />and creative urban perspective<br />innovators had the soundtrack<br />to our reality to be present<br />and accessible for us to<br />return to the focus of our<br />better selves.<br /><br />In spite of the homophobia<br />in life, urban youth have<br />always created safe<br />spaces for skaters, and<br />kids in foster care, and<br />LGBTQAI+ youth and kids<br />that just want to engage<br />their own music without<br />every song having lyrics<br />that are antithetical to<br />our LGBTQAI+ nature.<br /><br />Beats don't judge, and<br />da'Vent, or the 'WIRE,<br />or Cellblock, TANK,<br />dayroom, and Yard,<br />now Prison MEdia Center<br />Channel provides for a<br />Safe environment for<br />creative freedom, and<br />peace.<br /><br />When I was a kid I wrote<br />a song titled "U." as an<br />adult I recorded a tracer<br />vex because I wanted my<br />family crew "Perfect Timing" to<br />record the song, and have<br />the love of my life flow<br />a verse on it, never<br />had the chance for da'Kid<br />to drop his verse so I<br />left the track as a<br />rough draft I dedicated<br />this song to BMS because<br />it was the first song I ever<br />wrote about the future love<br />of my life. Enjoy!<br /><br />I recently had an opportunity<br />to see what my crew did<br />tothat video, and heard<br />my tracer vex track from<br />my former life, and it<br />reminded me of why SMS<br />is so important for the<br />spiritual better versions of<br />people like me, there<br />who are creators of our<br />own small spaces of<br />freedom to just be.

Sound Mind Streamer (doc)<br /><br />The Donor's<br /><br />Sound Mind Streamer Donor's:<br /><br />Tio McDonald - founder of East Oakland Times<br /><br />Thank you for being the first donor of three disc loaded with over 100<br />type beats of Urban Perspective Music.<br /><br />Sonikboi - Banning California based beat maker<br /><br />Much love young nephew for donating da'Vent 2.0 disc to SMS, your mother<br />should be very proud of the adult you have evolved into, absolutely<br />incredible.<br /><br />Sister Kathy - Holy Spirit Catholic Church Fremont Calif.<br /><br />We are grateful for the over 900plus inspiration songs for the Sounds of<br />Sunday/SMS programming.<br /><br />DJ Jules - Netherlands based DJ<br /><br />Without your commitment to countless hours of Youtube and Social Media<br />donations, there would be no SMS. Because of you, SQSP Campus knows<br />what love and care look like in real time. You are our foundation,<br />friend, and HERO; BIG HUG<br /><br />The First Responders<br /><br />!8 years ago, the fight to bring an end to the beatings, spit assaults,<br />excercise yard and chow hall attacks, forced rehousing to protective<br />custody of SQSP Incarcerated Americans that identified to some degree<br />as LGBTQI+ escalated to being douced with human urine and feces ans<br />dirty condoms at the hands of fellow inmates that self-identify as<br />active gangmembers and other inner-prison subcultural groups.<br /><br />Circa 2016, Campus Jewish Rabbi Paul Shleffar, and American Indian<br />Chaplain Hector Frank responded to the call for the need to start the<br />First SQSP/Condemned LGBTQI+ Spirituality Group.<br /><br />Then a true set of Heros visited the Group in the official capacity<br />of associate Warden T. Allen, and Public Relations Officer S. Robinson<br />who both made sure that the function of the new group and programming<br />generated by the group would be stablized with engaged integrity; allow<br />me to paraphrase a verse, For God has not given us the spirit of fear,<br />but the spirit of power, love, and a Sound Mind.<br /><br />(picture with text: LGBTQI+ Spirituality Group presents)<br /><br />The members<br /><br />1. Floyd<br />2. Calvin<br />3. Byron<br />4. Johnny<br />5. Skylar<br />6. Luis<br />7. Raynard<br />8. Jessica (transcended to Chowchilla)<br />9. Chris<br /><br />The primary lesson here for those involved with prison reform is,<br />to reform prisoners, one must engage the two primary valued<br />perspectives in incarceration situations across the board;<br /><br />#1. Respect<br />#2. Disrespect<br /><br />As we almost always focus our program designs to reform disrespect,<br />we forget to provide reform programs a direct connection to what<br />prisoners do respect.<br /><br />The Sound Mind Streamer New Media<br />Broadcast is designed for the<br />direct connections of same-sex<br />activities that existed precolonial<br />era not just in Africa, but also<br />to the history and culture of<br />all prison subcultural groups.<br /><br />Allowing for history to speak for<br />itself, and providing all inmates<br />equal access to the liberation of<br />their own facts not only begins<br />a new conversation but a mirror<br />is the most powerful tool for<br />the individual reform of each<br />person.

It's a trip to read that SMS is finally up and running, as a dear friend of mine would say: downright spiritual! It is an honor to be a part of that bold vision of yours that now comes into reality for all to see and grow. Congratulations on your patience and perseverance. Much love, DJ Jules
