Welcome to KU Hip-hop in Popular Culture. My name is Dr. Nicole Hodges Persley and this is the course blog for the Fall 2010 course. This semester, we will explore the broad influence of Hip-hop music and culture in American popular culture. You will post your perspectives on Hip-hop on this blog each week as part of your participation grade for the course. I look forward to guiding you on this journey as we investigate the multiple ways that Hip-hop influences the way we experience, create and understand American popular culture.
Please join this blog as a follower so that you will be able to post your views each week. You can create a email for this website at gmail or you can use your KU email. You are required to turn in a hard copy of your response to the GTA, Boone Hopkins, each week so that you can receive critical feedback about your writing and understanding of the topics we cover in the course.
Posting start the first week of class and are due on Wednesday. Please post and print a hard copy to class.
Here's to a great semester!
Nicole Hodges Persley
