Last month, the Black Youth Project hosted a dynamic and fascinating panel discussion, Rebirth of a Nation: Race and Gender Politics In Today’s Media:
Featuring Bakari Kitwana, Vijay Prashad, Rosa Clemente, Mark Anthony Neal, Joan Morgan and Che “Rhymefest” Smith), the conversation was inspiring, enlightening and robust, tackling such controversial topics as the Obama Presidency, The Occupy Movement, gender politics, our insidious 24-hour news cycle, and Hip Hop as a tool for social change.
Rebirth of a Nation was sponsored by The Center for the Study of Race, Politics and Culture, the Organization of Black Students at the University of Chicago, The Black Youth Project, and Rap Sessions: Community Dialogues on Hip Hop.
