Project Description
This project involves creating a piece of public history. We will work together to compile examples of how Hip Hop is practiced in your community. Each of you then will explore one facet of your community’s Hip Hop scene in a creative fashion. As with Module 1, we will work together in this space. The Community project then will serve as a resource for your Written Assignment for Module 2.
Here’s what I would like you to do:
In Week 6:
Enter the name of your neighborhood/borough, city and state (and nation, if you reside outside the U.S.). Place your neighborhood/borough, city and state in the title of your entry
Post a 75 -100 word description of your community and provide some examples of how Hip Hop is practiced in your locality. Try to include at least three examples. Some possible examples might be: student or community groups; bars or nightclubs; radio stations; youth organizations; permission walls; beat making workshops; b-boy/b-girl practice sessions.Please write your description in your own words, and include a citation or web link for where you found your material. (Do not cut and paste entries from other sources, though you may use these resources for finding your own material).
In Weeks 7 and 8, begin to explore one aspect of Hip Hop in your community in further detail.
Choose one or more Hip Hop activities that are being practiced in your community, and following the model of “Style Wars”, go out and learn more about them.Please try to interview participants in the activity, and if possible, attend a show or activity.
You may also shape your project around a Hip Hop activity that you yourself practice if you are involved in Hip Hop in that way.
Make sure to get good accurate information about the individuals associated with the activityDocument the activity with good detailed notes, images, and/or video.
If it is absolutely impossible for you to visit a live organization or event, you may go to a community-based Hip Hop web site instead.
Add the further aspects of Hip Hop in your community by responding to your entry for Week 6. You are encouraged to respond to other’s threads as well.
Please let me know if you are having difficulty making contacts or visiting an event, as I might be able to suggest ways to guide you.
