The aims of the Lecture Series are: (1) to provide a forum, an intellectually engaging and stimulating space where the marginalised voices of school youth will be heard; (2) share experiences, concerns and goals for their future of hip-hop and education in dialogue with peers, hip-hop artists, and researchers and academics who form part of the UWC teaching and learning environment; and (3) where school youth are able to discuss opportunities for careers via hip-hop in the higher education contexts. We hope that you will find the Lecture Series as an important space to have serious discussion around the past, present and future of hip-hop in South Africa, but also a forum for serious discussion about the commercialization of hip-hop, hip-hop activism, and hip-hop arts and hip-hop education in South Africa.
