Together we will discuss issues of identity, housing, economic opportunity and education.

ARTivism: Spoken Word & HipHop- In the middle of a severe global crisis, or what Gilles Lipovetsky has called “a society of deception,” street poets rise up to defy the dominant culture in its political, philosophic, and economic facets. Representatives from the socially conscious Hip-Hop movement choose to fight social injustice through the spoken word, addressing the struggle of marginalized people, the contemporary class tensions, the overpowering role of corporations in today’s society, or the effects of international policies fueled by globalization, among other topics. From the underground, young hip-hop artists aim to inform their followers of contemporary political and social issues, which are currently being undermined and minimized by the mainstream media. These cultural representations exemplify the creation on a new space of fusion, a borderless space, where collaboration between Spanish speaking countries unifies to put forth a common message of tolerance and universal change, proclaiming a unified globalized human citizenship who fight together in hopes to pursue the common good. In this course, students will examine artistic representation of these hip-hop thinkers and activists from the Spanish-Speaking world, whose common goal is to take the culture that unites many young people these days and channel it toward political engagement.
