Just a few days ago, I told you about my early love for Hip Hop when I brought you the details on Hot 97′s internships. Today I’ve found some more internships that take me back to my days of having my Mom drive me to Sam Goody to get the newest Rap CD. They’re with the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation in Atlanta, GA. Whether you sided with Biggie or Pac, if you want to work in an “environment that encourages freedom of expression, serves as a resource for families, and empowers via education,” then the TASF is the perfect place for you to intern. Tupac Shakur’s life may have been tragically cut short, but his legacy continues to live on, both through his music and his foundation. Although much of his public persona was based on the “Thug Life” image, Tupac definitely had a softer side and a love for the arts. That certainly comes through in the work of his foundation.
I’m not sure how I came across these internships, but a few days ago I saw that the Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation was looking for interns, and I knew that I had to post about them. They don’t provide any information on their own website about the internships, but they are posted in a couple of places online – here and here. The internships look pretty basic – they’re for the spring, and they require a 10-12 hour per week commitment (there’s no mention, but they’re probably unpaid). It’s unclear what the interns will be expected to do, but they should have some pretty exciting work considering what the TASF does. If you’d like to apply, send a cover letter and resume to vwcambridge@tasf.org.
