Collegiate Assistant Professor of the Humanities
******************
“Tupac in their Veins: Hip-Hop Alteño and the Semiotics of Urban Indigeneity”
Friday, April 5 | 3:30 to 5:00 PM
JRL 264
Professor Swinehart will be discussing hip-hop collective Wayna Rap’s work and the sociocultural milieu from which they emerge and, in turn, actively reshape, drawing on interviews with these artists and analyses of their lyrics and videos to illuminate the changing conditions of indigeneity in this corner of contemporary Bolivian society.
The pre-circulated reading is available here. If you require the password, please contact one of the student coordinators.
Refreshments, as always, are provided.
