The mix of international contexts, especially incorporating the voices of scenes that developed under oppressive regimes, are eye-opening for the central metaphor of knowledge production. Campbell and Forman truly get at the egalitarian and universal form of hip-hop, while acknowledging both African American roots and the varying reasons some founders are left out, closing with beautiful, insightful, and passionate interviews." -- Courtney E. Chartier, Columbia University Libraries"This innovative and accessible collection explores hip-hop practices that attest to its longevity, impact, and value. Of course, even with the global dissemination, adoption, and adaptation of hip-hop, this is also about the politics, community, and culture of Black people as the fount of this vital practice and knowledge, underlining the necessity of recording and archiving this history. Many contributors speak from empirical experience and their role in establishing the culture and its preservation attests to books authority and authenticity." -- Paul Long, Monash University Details ISBN1789388422 Author Murray Forman Year 2023 ISBN-13 9781789388428 Format Hardcover Imprint Intellect Books Subtitle The Politics and Poetics of Knowledge Production Place of Publication Bristol Country of Publication United Kingdom Illustrations 16 Illustrations, black and white AU Release Date 2023-10-27 NZ Release Date 2023-10-27 ISBN-10 1789388422 Audience Professional & Vocational DEWEY 306.484249 Pages 354 Publication Date 2023-10-30 UK Release Date 2023-10-30 Alternative 9781835951064 Publisher Intellect We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
