Hip Hop Literacies, a book by Dr. Elaine Richardson, discusses how certain facets of local and global cultures practice reading and writing. According to Richardson, the use of Hip Hop literacies is prevalent among oppressed peoples. With this in mind, write a well-developed essay, explaining why this may be true while discussing what Alim (2006) terms as Hip Hop Nation (HHN) and Hip Hop Nation Language (HHNL). Discuss how HHN and HHNL have local and global influences which are contributing to new forms of Hip Hop that are used to protest injustices. Using evidence from your own knowledge, experience, and practice, discuss and provide examples of how this use of Hip Hop has been received by the culture that created HHN and HHNL and by cultures that make use of the expressive form.
