I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach children anything, and by using fear as the basic motivation. Fear of getting failing grades, fear of not staying with your class, etc. Interest can produce learning on a scale compared to fear as a nuclear explosion to a firecracker.

Stanley Kubrick (via wnq-movies)

We can drastically improve the quality of education our children are receiving.

In This Moment // Kavet The Catalyst

It’s near impossible to talk about Hawaii Hip-Hop without mentioning Kavet The Catalyst. Many consider him the godfather of Hawaii Hip-Hop for all he’s done for hip-hop culture in the islands, yet he’s one of the most humble and down to earth people you’ll meet. With Lightsleepers he has paved the way for countless hip-hop artists and fans in Hawaii and worldwide and continues to spread the aloha. A lover of vinyl, Kavet will be spinning records at Green Leaf Check: Wax Edition on March 26, and on Saturday, April 4, Kavet will host the Beat Root Grand Championships so if you’re in Hawaii be sure to check out the top beat makers and producers battle it out. Read on to hear a couple of Kavet’s top ranking tracks and records of right now for this In This Moment: Don’t Sleep.

Two of the most influential figures in Hawaii Hip-Hop, Tassho Pearce and DJ Jimmy Taco. When me and @lee171 were coming up in the scene as The Soul Pacific, Tassho always showed mad love and Jimmy offered to spin our music on his show. That's what builds a scene. #unity #HawaiiHipHop #respect #love #aloha #808 (at Honolulu, Hawaii)
