Hip Hop Hope :: Lil’ G/Christine/Damian/Brad : Role Models
a couple weeks i did some facilitations for an youth program called Hip Hop Hope that brings opportunities of empowerment to youth through the four elements of hip hop lead by really rad local artists. this time around we went to the Tsawout Nation in Sooke, BC, and worked with youth coming from south vancouver island and the mainland. after intense workshops on making beats, building tracks, and composing songs, the youth got a chance to record their own cd. it was a pretty magical weekend of random ciphers, mint beats in the recording studio and so much love love love for one another, a cd of 8 songs was created. tonight was the cd release party. this is one of the tracks off the cd. i cried like a proud mama.
So good.
I encourage all people to watch this short documentary. It raises issues on “shadism” (the discrimination people have towards darker skin) that is in all cultures.
skin whitening and deep-seeded whiteness in definitions of “beauty.”
