The Bavubuka all*starz movement is always delighted in the concept of sharing and introducing community driven groups to the youth of Uganda for a global inspiration. To day I will start with a movement that has supported Bavubuka on this journey. Not only are they raising awareness on different social issues but they are also operating as grassroots agents of change not only in their homelands but also beyond the borders.
BAVUBUKA COMMUNITY IS PROUD TO BE AFFILIATED WITH NEGUS WORLD

NEGUS: Title of Ethiopian royalty from classical Ethiopic negus. King, Ruler.
NIGIST: Queen
Since the beggining of time, the human race has foiund every possible excuseto devide one another;from skin color to religion,native country to native toungue, and culturaltraditions to gender... the list goes on. so that in the end, aperson is judged by his appearance instead of his actions.
Too often, people take credit for what their ancestors accomplished,but not for what they themselves have done. We get so comfortable livig the life that constand propaganda dictates, that we don't take timeto stop, think and ask our selves: "whatdo i really stand for?" We worry so much about what the next man thinks,that we don't dare think outside of the box and go astray from traditional,common ways. We accept the things that major peer pressuretell us we are,or even should be.
WHAT IS A NEGUS WORLD?

Its aboutunity. While never forgetting historical tragidies, such as slavery and the holocaust, whic are a source of social imbalance today, negus world fights for equality now. It's about judging each man by his action, being apart of a significant change.
Althought the word Negus soounds like "niger"it has a totally opposite meaning. Negus world is by no means a "ban of the N word" movment, or even an attempt to substitute to it. Instead,we educate youth and adults about where the word nigger come from, which is slavery. Slavery should never be burried under a rock, because it was a chapter of human history characterized by crime against humanity. The negusworld movement teaches that each and every one is born a king and a queen. We eventually chose to givie up our crown and became a discipline of whatever tradition or trend our idols and leaderswere feeding us.
YOU are born a Negus, but they tell you that you are a nigger. It is a choice you make, which do you choose to be? The leader or the follower? The king or the slave?
The Negus world movement asks these questions: Are you a Negus? Are you worthy of wearing a crown?The crown is made of the same chains used to oppress our ancestors, and is refashioned to reflect our ultimate victory over that pain and oppression. Yet. when placed upon the head of any one other than a true Negus, it is just a piece of metal. It is what we choose to make of the past that decides our future, and it is the negus that makes the crown
Anegus has a pure heart, A NEgus is fearless, a nNegus is a worrior, a negus knows where he is fromand yet doesn't let it definite where he is going, since a Negus doesn't follow. A Negus is his one and only leader, every one else is simply a source of inspiration.
Are you a NEGUS?
And you SISTER are you a NIGIST?

International Community Activism Project
Originally inspire by Jane Feldman's 1993 photograph J.E.M.B.H.A is not just a group about a group of people with different ethinicity or religion coming together to take a group picture. We are soldiers fighting for "change"
It's about understanding that the mistakes from the past have led to an inequality in today's society and around the world. if an individual understands this, and is fighting to bring the balance to a fair equal level, i will fight by his side regardless of the color of his skin or the God he is praying to.
