(video) Youth Empowerment through Hip Hop
2009 October 12
The S.H.A.R.P. program in Washington, DC encourages students to express themselves through hip-hop. By writing lyrics, rapping, and creating music tracks, the students are empowered to speak openly about their identities and life experiences.
I love this!! There should be a program like this one in every state… No matter what they rap about, they are feeling like their words are valued and respected by adults.
