“There should be a class on drugs. There should be a class on sex education-a real sex education class-not just pictures and diaphragms and ‘un-logical’ terms and things like that…..there should be a class on scams, there should be a class on religious cults, there should be a class on police brutality, there should be a class on apartheid, there should be a class on racism in America, there should be a class on why people are hungry, but there are not, there are classes on gym, physical education, let’s learn volleyball.”

On September 7, 1996, 29-year-old Leonard Jefferson went to Las Vegas to see a Mike Tyson fight, but he never ended up seeing him He did spot Tupac Shakur at an intersection just off the Strip and promptly snapped a photo of him, not knowing that this would be the last photograph ever taken of the legendary rap star while he was still alive. It wasn’t long after this that Tupac was fatally shot in a drive-by shooting when his car stopped at a red light at East Flamingo Road and Koval Lane. The gunman had shot him twice in the arm, once in the chest, and once in the thigh. He was rushed to the hospital but unfortunately died of his injuries six days later. The rapper’s killer was never caught, although gangster Orlando Anderson has always remained a huge suspect, even though he died in 1998. Two decades after his murder, Tupac remains the most iconic symbol in rap history.
