GET YO MIND RIGHT, A Video by Marvin X

Get Yo Mind Right is Marvin X's version of the barber shop, shot in East Oakland, 38th and MacArthur. The videographer and editor is Pam Pam. Marvin must not only pay for his haircut but the young barbers force him to teach on a variety of subjects, politics, religion, history, manhood and other topics. We also see the neighborhood psychopath doing his thing. One barber is a young Black Panther baby; a customer from Philadelphia is a disciple of Noble Drew Ali's Moorish Science Temple. A youth explains why he wears the do rag and cap. Enjoy this video that Fahizah Alim of the Sacramento Bee called "the Real Barbershop."
