Minister Faust is a long-time community activist, writer, journalist, broadcaster, public speaker and martial artist in several disciplines. Minister Faust refers to his sub-genre of writing as Imhotep-Hop—an Africentric literature that draws from myriad ancient African civilizations, explores present realities, and imagines a future in which people struggle not only for justice, but for the stars. He lives in Edmonton with his wife and daughters, where he also runs Canada's top bean pie bakery, Desserts of Kush.
