In 2 weeks Heal the Hood Project is hosting their Hip Hop as Healing Festival in Cape Town. We love the great work HTH has been doing in the community for almost 30 years. Our Hip Hop Studies minor Director Dr. Msia Msia Kibona Clark Clark will be in Cale Town for this year’s festival!

If you haven’t registered for the conference, the video from last year’s conference shows you what you’ll be missing.

A set of contributions by practitioners has been put together by Msia Kibona Clark: "Many artists in Africa must grapple with the question of language, and artists often offer differing perspectives", Kibona Clark writes in the introduction to the set. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

The DNC needs to allow members like Jasmine Crockett & AOC to lead the party. The rules have changed & if they want to win seats in the midterms, the DNC needs the progressive change Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, @aoc, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, & the Squad can bring.
