Russell Simmons is the founder of the preeminent hip-hop record label Def Jam. Simmons has pioneered the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network, which promotes voting and financial responsibility. “The Hip-Hop Summit was founded so that we could have artists use their celebrity to lift up the community,” said Simmons. “I was told once by a civil rights leader that the last leg in civil rights is financial literacy, that economic empowerment was the last thing that communities of color in this country needed.”
