ok im doin a paper on 2pac and his social ideas for helping the community etc and i was wonderin if people could take there time to maybe give me some extra ideas ..i have a pretty good knowledge of pac and his life but im thinkin more of social tool 2pac? im just wonderin if yall could give me some more ideas to add to my ones ...im look for things that pac did or ideas for the community ..i am goin to represent the fact that pacs messahe and intellect was covered over by violence, problems , media etc ..when in reality pac had a dream to change things for the world and his people .....

my ideas so far are basically
him and death row passin out turkeys on thanksgivin
pacs idea of thug life and the code
his community concert (resurrection)
him tryin to get into politics (prediction) in his makaveli era

He had a house in atlanta that he gave away free to a family that had no where to live.

He once took a girl to her prom(spelled wrong?? lol )

Pac also helped alot of rappers that couldnt come up the game, so he put em on his All Eyez On Me Album

He was in New York and flew back to LA( he was there maybe for an hour ) just as he got back he found that some kid's last wish was to meet Pac and so he flew right to new york and visited the kid, He had cancer i think. He was gonna make a charity company or somethin or to help kids cant remember but he was gonna call it Joshua's Dream.

pac was suppose to put up a hotline for kids to call in. whoever that wanted to get their feelingz out..or had a topic they wanted to talk about.

he was trying to help out rapperz that werent popular..by signing em..and putting em on his songz. makaveli records.

he walkd around giving out money to homeless people. he was giving out 100 dollar bills.

Tupac was in Cali I think? He heard about a girl on the news who was mauled by a dog and he went to the hospital to visit her. That was from the "Thug Angel" documentary.

Also "A Place Called Home" was this community center that he helped start which is still going today.

Basically the most important thing was the music and I think that he really made that the number one thing in his life. On "Smile" when he said, "Maybe now, niggas feel me now, witness my pain, embrace my words, make the world change", I think that's what it was; Take the anger and emotion and hope and hopelessness in his music, and realize that it was a call for help for his people, and depressed and/or oppressed people everywhere.
