Jonathan E Calvillo: In the Time of Sky-Rhyming, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Jonathan E. Calvillo explores the rise of Hip Hop on the West Coast and the integral role the Los Angeles Latine community had on the movement-and in turn, Hip Hop's impact on Latines as it became a space for community, expression, and coping with inequality. Building his narrative around grassroots interviews and oral histories, he explores how in the 1980s incoming migrants and local-born Latines joined Black Americans and other minoritized populations to build early underground sites of Hip Hop innovation ahead of the genre's global expansion.
