Prompt:

My Study Guide for “Rapping in the Light” (under Files on Canvas), attempts to answer the following question. For this week’s discussion, I’d like you to try to answer it for yourself. Point me to specific sections of the article, and if you’re a hip-hop fan, show me some evidence from hip-hop music that supports your points.

Is hip-hop minstrelsy? Critics and rappers alike have called hip-hop a modern-day minstrel show. “Critics of rap culture do a fine job of showing that every staple of the minstrel show—characters, themes, dances, and melodies—have been redeployed virtually unchanged in rap minstrelsy (Louis 2006; Ogbar 2007). They lament that performances of these stereotypes reinforce racism and they are genuinely confused that Blacks would voluntarily choose to act out these roles” (Sajnani 314)
