After two years of intense planning and organizing in more than 35 cities around the country, the finishing touches are being put on the National Hip Hop Political Convention, which takes place in Newark, N.J., June 16-19. The day the convention kicks off, June 16, is Tupac's birthday, and it ends on June 19.
