[We want to spark youth involvement with a campaign that is fresh, sexy, relevant, and cool to develop a younger, louder voice for advancing Africa."
Despite being relatively new, the campaign is rapidly catching eyes and gaining attention. Posters and promotional t-shirts that were distributed as part of the guerilla campaign are especially popular. We've successfully influenced and recruited youth, both African and African-American, to our cause," said Nwoke. The entire country will get a chance to see I AM THE FUTURE!" in action. The I AM THE FUTURE!" staff will hit New York City on October 1st and plans to spread to Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, and other major US cities to promote the campaign.
