May 23, 1987 – December 25, 2018
In the final week of 2018, we were shocked with the sudden passing of a courageous leader in the Hip Hop Community, Noah Theeman Lindberg, better known in the dance community as “Poppin Agenda.” Born in Denver, May 23, 1987 to Reed Lindberg and Marge Theeman, Noah died of smoke inhalation when his quiet cabin in Gilpin County burned on December 25, 2018.
Noah was well known in the national Hip Hop community as both a dancer and promoter of community events. He danced under the name “Poppin Agenda.” Poppin is a type of street dance, which Noah loved and which helped him manage his severe Tourette’s Syndrome. Tourette’s is a neurological disorder that disrupts movement with uncontrollable tics. Rahman Jamaal, chairman of the International Hip-Hop Congress wrote, “Noah left so much for us to learn through his YouTube video series “Poppin4Tourette’s,” which shares his unique personal experience incorporating dance as a support mechanism to cope with Tourette’s Syndrome.
