“Sweep them Clean, Sweep the Streets Clean”- (The Abyssinians)
Oglethorpe Avenue in Athens Georgia is the source of everything that is DubConscious . That is where our home office, practice space and basic crash pad has been since 2007.
So when Dub Family member Shawna Levine did the research to get DubConscious to adopt the street in early 2008, it was a no-brainer to make it an official pact. Now it is our responsibility to clean up the streets, literally. It’s amazing how many cigarette butts and plastic bottles are really out there. The experience of cleaning just a ½ mile section of Oglethorpe Avenue can remind us of how much work really needs to be done to turn things around in this new day and age of environmental awareness. And it feels good to do this, which is the most important part. Seeing DubConscious members and family cleaning up Oglethorpe is a joy really and we invite all to come participate with us at our next cleanup on Monday Jan. 14th. We also encourage others to adopt streets in their name and invite us and the entire community to help. It is the little things that will change the world. One piece of trash at a time.
Peace and Love
DubC
