Hip Hop as Learning Tool Hip Hop music, poetry, and dance – and how they can be used as an educational tool – will be discussed during a special pre-performance lecture event at 5 p.m. on Thursday, January 24, in Governors State University’s Engbretson Hall. “Braid Tales - the ZigZags and Twists of Urban Classroom Pedagogy” will explore the relationship between youth development work, Hip Hop performance, and educational efforts at Kuumba Lynx, a Chicago-based arts and education organization. Kuumba Lynx’s touring production, “Braid Tales,” will be presented at 8 p.m. on Saturday, January 26, at Governors State University Center for Performing Arts. Panel members at the January 24 lecture include moderator Dr. Rashidah Muhammad, Professor of English and Secondary Education; Jacinda Bullie, co-founder of Kuumba Lynx; Jaquanda Villegas, co-executive director of Kuumba Lynx; Keith Redmond, a member of Kuumba Lynx Adult Ensemble; and Dr. Patrick Santoro, Assistant Professor, Division of Communications, Visual, and Performing Arts. The lecture is free and open to the public. “Braid Tales” is part of GSU Center’s 2012-2013 “One More Night” series, which brings the finest in Chicago-area theatre, dance, and music to local audiences. “One More Night” is made possible by a generous grant from The Chicago Community Trust. Tickets for “Braid Tales” are $30, $10 for college students, and $5 for high school students.
