23. The Influence of Hip-Hop [part 2]

"...to narrowly define Hip-Hop as an oppositional or an art that inherently resist racism  or oppression is an oversimplification. The art not only resist the overarching themes of racial discrimination inherent in America popular culture, but it also affirms the racial status quo while simultaneously offering alternative perspectives. Fundamentally, Hip-Hop is a varied, complex art form with plenty of room for expression along various ideological lines..."  Jeffery O.G. Ogbar, Ph.D "Hip Hop Revolution: The Culture and Politics of Rap"
