title: The Dreamers: Without a dream there is no sleep
author: Shomari D Lipscomb
description: Shomari D Lipscomb home town of Gary, Indiana where we are known for the king of pop Michael Jackson ,but also the violence that goes on in our city. I wanted to change that cycle by motivating the youth with a dream that would allow them to do better things. Growing up as a freshman in high school, I started making music videos with the money I saved to buy a camera. I also write and currently working on a few short films.

  I have heard what the talkers were talking, the talk of the  
  beginning and the end.
  
  
  But I do not talk of the beginning or the end.
