Why Southern California First? Print E-mail
Written by Audible   

Because you gotta start somewhere...

But really though, Southern California is an interesting place for Hip Hop culture. It's wildly diverse in ethnic backgrounds, economically diverse as well, and has a commuter culture which deters traditional means of community.

CLEARLY THERE'S SERIOUS DIVISION HERE.

"Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, 'If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name." Nehemiah 1:8-9

This is why Sessions are needed in Southern California, to create a third culture between home (tradition), economic (work), in a local area meeting ground.

It's not like these principles could work anywhere, and they should, but this site is a testing ground for an area that hasn't yet taken care of on it's own. One day we hope to open it up more, but that would probably make our 'Calendar' overloaded and unusable. Southern California is also a tremendous influence on the world culture, so in effect, changing things here will eventually result in changing the world.
