Summary: Kevin Powell is a cultural dynamo. He's a journalist, activist, poet, hip hop historian and Congressional Candidate, but most importantly he's a former cast member on MTV's first season of "The Real World."
Don't front. You know you loved the first season of Real World. Well, l'il Kev is all grown up and he's running for a seat in Congress in the 10th Congressional District (Brooklyn). This isn't a fundraiser, but his candidacy will probably be a theme throughout the night. Djs include Reborn (Ubiquita NYC,) Miss Saigon, Misbehaviour & Lalo. It's also sponsored in part by ESQUIRE Magazine and SOCIALSTEP.COM, so you might wanna dress nice for this one. He's running on a fairly enlightened platform, so go out, get your drink on and support some progressive politics. He definitely has an uphill battle.
