AFAM 50 (4.0
units) –
Session II
Recently, hip-hop’s 50th year anniversary was recognized around the country: from “block
party” celebrations in communities of color around the country to performances and lectures at
the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. How did hip-hop culture, which originated in
Black and Latinx communities in New York City, enter into the global stage with billionaires
among its representatives? Through an intensive examination of the music, people, histories,
and controversies of hip-hop, we will deep-dive into analyses of race, gender, socio-historical
events, and their intersections in intensive, engaging sessions. Attendance and participation
are mandatory. (IV).
