Next week, Immortal Technique (shown above, left, with DJ Green Lantern) will complete a few dates on the two coasts. Chief among them is a fundraising concert at San Francisco’s DNA Lounge for OMEID International, an advocacy group that is building an orphanage and medical center in Kabul, Afghanistan. The center is scheduled to open in March of next year.
“I have been working hard along with Omeid International to coordinate the trip to Afghanistan and to work on the fundraiser that is coming up on the 20th of November in San Francisco. They are a dedicated group and I am glad to have such good company for my work and our achievements,” Immortal Technique writes on his MySpace page. “And one day soon I hope to look upon the war-torn landscape of Afghanistan standing among the children that you and I as my supporters both helped to create a new life for with this center, who we aided in giving a fighting chance in this world that gives no quarter to the pious or the unknowing and innocent.”
