Hip Hop has the power to bridge the personal to the political, so while everyone’s attention is on personal feuds in the rap industry, we can draw some parallel rhymes to frame our deeper issues in the world. #MultipleEntendres #Lyricism

Peace LinkedIn Community! After a wonderful symposium paying tribute to women in Hip-Hop at Lincoln Center, and a couple of weeks off to reflect and recharge, I’m back with more great programming. I will be posting more on the symposium but today I’m happy to share that our next speaker for Education and Equity Speaker Series for Educators is the one and only Sebastien Elkouby. Don’t miss this virtual workshop happening tonight April 24th from 4:30-5:30pm PT/7:30-8:30pm ET on https://lnkd.in/gbJEZx5Q Sebastien’s introduction to Hip-Hop culture began in 1981. The nine year-old kid, who had just moved from Paris, France, took to breakdancing as a way to make new friends. Like his peers, Sebastien participated in various elements of Hip-Hop culture, briefly experimenting with Graffiti and DJing but eventually finding his voice through rap and beatboxing. Inspired by Public Enemy, Sebastien recognized Hip-Hop’s impact on his generation and began incorporating his passion for history, self-empowerment, and social issues with Hip-Hop culture. In 2001, Sebastien co-founded the Urban Youth Empowerment Foundation, a community-based organization dedicated to youth empowerment through Hip-Hop Culture. In 2007, he created The Global Awareness through Hip-Hop Culture (TGATHHC) course, which was picked up by a public charter school in South Central Los Angeles. This class was one of the only full-time Hip-Hop courses in the nation offered to middle/high school students during regular school hours. In 2017, Sebastien’s educational Hip-Hop program was designated as a University of California approved, college-preparatory elective, making it one of few Hip-Hop programs with such distinction. In 2019, Sebastien was invited by the Arts, Media, and Entertainment division of the CTE branch of the California Department of Education to bring TGATHHC course to schools across California. This is the first time in history that Hip-Hop education will be offered to middle and high school students as an official statewide elective. The H2E2 Series is proudly presented in partnership with @hiphopeducationcenter @hiphop4change & the @h2e2initiative #HipHopEducation

Wishing all the success to 1Hood for their voter engagement which has proven successful in Pittsburgh, PA. Remember the work don’t stop at the ballot box. Politicians are the civic servants and we are the boss. Keep learning this political system, it’s ours to use.
Empowerment begins at the ballot box. Voting is our voice, our power, and our chance to shape a future that uplifts and honors Black communities. Every vote matters, every voice counts. Let's make history together in this upcoming election. 🎥: Emmai Alaquiva
