4 CORNERS
Today Hip Hop is a multi-billion dollar per year industry. But where did it come from? Why was it created? And most importantly, what can we learn from it? The 4 Corners Assembly takes students back in time to the Bronx, New York; one of the most inequitable situations for people of color. Throughout the 70's the area was a symbol of urban decay. However, it as from these dire circumstances that Hip Hop was born. This art form blended and transcended to become a means for seeing, celebrating, experiencing, understanding, confronting and commenting on life.
The name "4 Corners" comes from the four elements of Hip-Hop culture. They include:
1. DJing - the artistic handling of beats and music
2. Mcing, aka Rapping - putting spoken-word and poetry to a beat
2. Break Dancing - Hip-Hop's dance form
4. Graffiti - the painting of highly stylized urban art
This assembly is an enjoyable tour through history and a celebration of one of the greatest art forms in the world today.
ISSUES COVERED: history, culture, social justice, empathy
Recommended for grades 7-12. Presentations adjusted accordingly.
