Hip-Hop and Dismantling the School-to-Prison Pipeline
was created for K-12 students in hopes that they find tangible strategies for creating affirming communities where students, parents, advocates and community members collaborate to compose liberating and just frameworks that effectively define the school-to-prison pipeline and identify the nefarious ways it adversely affects their lives. This book is for educators, activists, community organizers, teachers, scholars, politicians, and administrators who we hope will join us in challenging the predominant preconceived notion held by many educators that Hip-Hop has no redeemable value. Lastly, the authors/editors argue against the understanding of Hip-Hop studies as primarily an academic endeavor situated solely in the academy. They understand the fact that people on streets, blocks, avenues, have been living and theorizing about Hip-Hop since its inception. This important critical book is an honest, thorough, powerful, and robust examination of the ingenious and inventive ways people who have an allegiance to Hip-Hop work tirelessly, in various capacities, to dismantle the school-to-prison pipeline.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"This timely and thought-provoking book adopts an intersectional approach for understanding hip hop as a form of public pedagogy capable of challenging systems of domination. It reflects and contributes to many of today's social movements (BLM, mass incarceration, education reform, feminism, queer liberation) and seeks nothing less than radical, transformative social change. Nothing but applause and claps!"-Jason Del Gandio, co-editor of
