Institution:

Trinity College

Subject:

Description:

This course will look at the intersections of hip hop and race from a variety of perspectives. Students will discuss how race and racism inform hip hop, and what the musicians want audiences to understand. The most important aspect of this course is listening-to each other and to the musicians studies. In each of the discussion-based meetings, students will respond to the music of the political rappers of the early and middle 1990s, as well as to articles written by cultural historians, journalists, and hip hop artists between 1990 and 2008. 0.25 units, Lecture
