No Luck Club track gives head tax redress movement new ammo
A new track from No Luck Club's upcoming 2nd CD release, Prosperity, entitled "Our Story - Chinese Head Tax Mash-Up" has given long time redress movement activist SID CHOW TAN the inspiration to shed light on it towards the younger generation.
Tan is organizing Head Tax Hip Hop for Redress in Saltwater City, a petition signing and letter writing event this Sunday, SEPTEMBER 10 at 10am at Carnegie Community Center, right in the heart of Chinatown.
The "Our Story" track combines numerous quotes and snippets of proganda and the protest voice relating to this point in Canada's history on top of No Luck's beats and cuts.
Tan has been involved with the cause for 20 years and is the grandson of a head tax payer.
