In following this year's Black History Month theme focusing on the arts, allow us to highlight the Hip Hop Initiative at UCLA. Housed in @bunchecenter, the Initiative launched in 2022, just ahead of the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop. A collective of artists and scholars, the initiative will archive and study the cultural impact of the genre while also inviting prominent artists (like inaugural artist-in-residence Chuck D.) to engage with the campus community. #JoinTheLegacy 📸 : Freedom Moves: Hip Hop Knowledges, Pedagogies, and Futures - edited by members of the Hip Hop Initiative
