Learning from a Young Indigenous Artist: What Can Hip-Hop Teach Us?
Hudson, Audrey
Art Education, v73 n1 p18-22 2020
Although all things about hip-hop culture are not positive, indigenous hip-hop offers narratives of nationhood, pride, resurgence, and calls for Indigenous sovereignty. Through this art form, one gets to see traditional dance steps merged with b-boy/girl styles and graffiti that interrupts the urban landscape with images of history and hope. Audrey Hudson writes that as an arts educator, her appreciation for the culture greatly increased as she discovered how beautifully hip-hop and education meshed to teach students about the sociopolitical lived experiences of underserved communities. Hudson begins this article discussing her love for hip-hop and explores how another young person found rap music a means for self-expression and education. In the last section she has included a lesson plan that emphasizes culturally responsive pedagogy and critical thinking with art to further learning about Indigenous communities.
