Question #1

Using Dr. Pough's article “Seeds and Legacies"( in the attachment below) as your main source of evidence, please explain the connection between the Black Power movement and hip hop. It might be helpful to think about this connection literally (through Afeni and Tupac Shakur) and conceptually (ideas, values, methods, etc). (One paragraph, no less than500 words)

· Use at least 2 quotes from Dr. Pough's article to support your claim (once you've met this requirement, it's fine to also reference the documentary)

· Must include titles of texts and page numbers

Question #2

Using Dr. Kelley's chapter, "Kickin' Reality, Kickin' Ballistics," "( in the attachment below). please provide at least two examples of the environmental/material conditions that influenced the rise of gangsta rap in Los Angeles during the 1990s.  (One paragraph, no less than500 words)

· Please use at least 2 quotes from the text to support your claim.

· Must include titles of texts and page numbers

I'd like you to try to begin each answer with a claim. The claim should state clearly what your position is and organize the evidence you'll use to support that position.
