Its praxis as an agent of social change has been inextricably connected to movements of empowerment for countless youth who embrace hip hop (Bynoe, 2004; Chang, 2004; Kitwana, 2002). This study explores its Afro-Diasporic, activist origins, and the origins of activist organization Hip Hop Congress, as well as the theoretical impact of hip hop culture on the identity and pedagogy of educators affiliated with the Urban Teachers Network. Currently, hip hop education is being taught in nearly every discipline and subject in the K-16 pipeline (Duncan & Morrell, 2008), with very little assessment of its effect on student performance and equally limited analysis of educator’s role of its implementation. The results of this study will acknowledge the efforts of the Urban Teachers Network to connect educators who utilize hip hop pedagogy and evaluate the effect of their efforts while chronicling the activist role of Hip Hop Congress. 2012-10-05 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1338905792 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1338905792 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
