Monte Smith vs. DJ Premier T-Shirt

Don’t Shoot the Hostages is more than just another "conscious" or “radical” poetry book. It’s an outspoken contribution towards the clarification and understanding of: Race, White Guilt, Religion, Police Brutality, The Real Drug War, America the Plantation, 9/11, The Prison Industrial Complex and Local/International poverty issues from the perspective of the Revolutionary, The drug dealer/addict, and the common man and woman. "In Coup-like Fashion, Monte’s writing is a Molotov Cocktail headed straight for the government. His words are on fire." -BRUCE GEORGE Co producer of HBO’S Def Poetry Jam
