Cultural Education 1982 - 1994
by Emile Jansen
Book 1 of 1: Creating Solutions Emile Lester Jansen

Creating Solutions, Part 1 is the first installment in a series that explores the transformative power of Hip Hop Culture and its lessons for artists seeking to turn their creative passions into sustainable careers. Written as a companion to the Making A Black Noise series, this book delves into the foundational years of Emile YX?’s journey through creativity, dance, and Hip Hop, offering a unique blend of personal storytelling, historical reflection, and practical advice.

Starting with Emile’s introduction to Hip Hop Culture through dance in the 1980s, the book recounts his early experiences of mimicking Michael Jackson and learning Popping and Waving from music videos. These dances became a medium of self-expression and courage, helping Emile confront his fear of crowds and ultimately develop his voice as an advocate against Apartheid.

The narrative explores life under Apartheid, reflecting on pivotal moments such as balancing personal decisions with the political turmoil of the time, honoring community heroes, and the formation of Black Noise. Readers will journey through Emile’s creative evolution, from founding The Message magazine to touring South Africa with Black Noise and eventually connecting with global Hip Hop communities like the Universal Zulu Nation in New York.

Key chapters provide actionable insights for artists, including:

“Diversify Your Creative and Income Streams”: Tips for maximizing financial stability while maintaining creative integrity.
“The Mathematics of Survival”: Strategies for managing finances, saving for long-term goals, and avoiding overspending during tours.
“Ubuntu as Ancestral Intelligence”: Lessons on how ancestral wisdom and collective values can guide artists in building meaningful careers.
With reflections on personal growth, the challenges of navigating the music industry as a person of color, and the importance of building community, Creating Solutions, Part 1 is more than a memoir—it’s a guidebook for artists, creatives, and changemakers who dare to dream big and transform their visions into reality.

Planned as part of a broader series, this book sets the stage for future volumes that will explore each decade of Emile’s involvement in Hip Hop Culture, offering timeless lessons for artists and communities worldwide.

Whether you’re an aspiring creative, a seasoned artist, or someone looking for inspiration in navigating life’s challenges, Creating Solutions, Part 1 will empower you to dream, innovate, and thrive.

Ronney Kapaso is a Centre Manager for Intouch Youth Development and Community Justice, a dedicated non-profit organization operating in Orange Farm, Heidelberg, and Limpopo - South Africa. Ronney shared with CSMA the following story of significant change.

'Our mission is to nurture and transform lives through innovative programs addressing social, economic, and environmental challenges.

We are excited to respond to your recent call on Facebook for community developers and social entrepreneurs. Your initiative resonates deeply with our commitment to empowering communities and fostering sustainable impact. We believe that joining this program will enhance our capacity to drive meaningful change and expand our reach.

At Intouch, we are actively involved in initiatives such as food security through sustainable farming on our 8.9-hectare agricultural hub, youth empowerment programs, and community development projects. We are confident that collaborating with your esteemed initiative will provide invaluable resources and mentorship to further amplify our impact.

We would be honored to be considered as participants and look forward to the opportunity to work together towards a shared vision of community empowerment. Please let us know the next steps and any additional information required for our application

Operating across South Africa since 2016, we are a dynamic non-profit organization committed to advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on:

1. SDG 1 (No Poverty): Empowering communities through food security and economic opportunities.
2. SDG 5 (Gender Equality): Promoting inclusion and equity.
3. SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities): Building resilient, self-sustaining communities.
4. SDG 13 (Climate Action): Driving climate-conscious agricultural practices.
5. SDG 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions): Fostering justice and community well-being.
6. SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals): Collaborating for collective impact.
Our flagship initiative is an 8.9-hectare agricultural project, where we cultivate green peppers, cabbages, and spinach—not just to feed communities but to create sustainable livelihoods. Central to this initiative is our commitment to youth empowerment. We have recruited 10 aspiring young leaders, equipping them with practical farming skills, entrepreneurial training, and a passion for innovation in agriculture.

This farm is more than just land—it’s a living example of how social, economic, and environmental challenges can be tackled simultaneously. Through sustainable agricultural practices, we are addressing food security, promoting economic resilience, and contributing to climate action.

Intouch Youth Development and Community Justice is a testament to what grassroots innovation can achieve. Together, we are shaping a future where no one is left behind, cultivating not only crops but also opportunities, hope, and sustainable solutions'.
