the meaning behind the name
“eye 4 eye”
The name "Eye 4 Eye" was chosen with great care and holds no connection to the negative connotations often associated with the phrase. Instead, it stands as a symbol of returning the same positive and creative energy that Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes gifted to us. This idea is beautifully echoed in her song "I Believe in Me," where she imparts the message, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," a fundamental ethical teaching of Jesus, also recognized as the Golden Rule—a principle expressed by Jesus in Luke 6:31 and Matthew 7:12. "Eye 4 Eye" encompasses this affirmative concept of reciprocity. Just as Lisa utilized her platform to uplift, inspire, and motivate others, the gathering aspires to reflect that same influence back into the world. It strives to honor her legacy by perpetuating the cycle of creativity, empowerment, and community that she so passionately advocated.
Just as Lisa used her platform to uplift, inspire, and challenge others, the symposium aims to reflect that influence back into the world.
