The Beauties, Tensions, and Power of Critical Hip-Hop Pedagogy: An Interactive Dialogue

Thu, April 11, 2:30 to 4:00pm, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 5, Salon K

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This symposium seeks to foster dialogue with and among those who recognize the beauties, tensions, and power present in Hip Hop and who are eager to explore the opportunities that this cultural and historical phenomenon offer as a transformative element for educational research, practice, and theory. Featuring several authors from the forthcoming Handbook of Critical Hip Hop Pedagogy, this interactive session engages attendees in critical dialogue regarding how Hip Hop-based research and practice can be enacted in authentic and transformative ways. In this session, artist-activist-teachers and lifelong learners engage in critical dialogue to consider how to co-design and facilitate educational spaces that embrace the myriad identities of the current and future generations of youth inside and outside of schools.
