SOCIAL ANGST is more than just a blog, it is an invitation to aid in the building of wealth through the shared task of information distribution and discussion. It is a call to engage – engage in society, engage with your peers, engage in your political system, engage in spreading the wealth that is information, and engage in multiplying that wealth through discussion – so that collectively we may become more socially aware, more socially responsible, more socially vocal and ultimately more socially valuable.

Once again shadowandact.com comes through with the goods worth garnishing as Kjmim remind us to tune into BET's Lens on Talent.  Lens on Talent (sponsored by Johnson & Johnson) is a one hour short film showcase hosted by Sanaa Lathan which features the best in upcoming African American talent.

Episode 11 of Lens On Talent profiles the award winning Ghetto Film School, an extracurricular initiative founded by Joe Hall that connects talented young people ages 14 to 21 to artistic, educational and career opportunities in the world of film and video*.  The program consists of a four modules curriculum that includes Ghetto Film 101, Industry 101, Thesis Film Project, and Job Placement and College Preparation.  GFS is currently taking applications for their 2010 program which begins in July.  Interested persons can visit http://www.ghettofilm.org/request_form.html for application information.
