Hip Hop Opera

 Don't Trigger!

On Tuesday 12th October 2007 Harriet attended the much anticipated launch of the "Hip Hop Opera" in Leicester Square.

The film examines the issues of gangs, guns and knife crime and features British and international actors as well as real victims, real gang members, real politicians and real police which aims to inspire communities to unite against gun crime.

Harriet has worked with the producers, Urban Concepts - a South London organisation, over the years backing up the good work that they have done to combat the issue of knife and gun crime.

Harriet said

"This film is important in highlighting the devastation gun crime causes to families and communities. I’m especially impressed with the way in which A Hip Hop Opera uses music to get the campaign message across."
