Hiphop Studies Futures |
The 2015 conference theme is "Hiphop Studies Futures.” Many researchers, educators, artists, and youth advocates use Hiphop to create dynamic futures for Hiphop generation youth. We seek to illuminate both the state of and the new directions in Hiphop studies scholarship. We will address issues of identity, social stratification, globalization, popular culture and technology. The first day of the conference will feature workshops and keynotes from leading scholars in Hiphop studies; the second day will feature paper presentations from emerging and leading Hiphop Studies scholars, artists and educators.
