GZA and Hip Hop's Use in Science Education

The title essentially explains it all. I already completed all of my blog posts and have a bunch of finals to work on, but check out this video. It's fascinating. After the video check out the Science Genius program that just began in NYC. Hip Hop is continually reaching out and occupying more and more space not only in academia but in general. Wu-Tang Forever.

  1. Great find, Cameron! How progressive and resourceful of scientists in New York to look to the youth for an answer on how to educate youth. It is such a gold mine of a discovery that Professor Edmin and his colleagues have made because as GZA illustrates, hip hop can be a medium for ANYTHING, including astronomy and physics. It's refreshing to see and hear about positive things happening in the culture of hip hop, or rather, that society is able to embrace it and utilize it rather than reject it.
