  • Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- Lecture for C-Span
    Fordham University DigitalResearch@Fordham Occasional Essays Bronx African American History Project 10-28-2019 Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- Lecture for C-Span Mark Naison Follow this and additional works at: https://fordham.bepress.com/baahp_essays Part of the African American Studies Commons, American Popular Culture Commons, Cultural History Commons, and the Ethnomusicology Commons Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- My Lecture for C-Span What I am about to describe to you is one of the most improbable and inspiring stories you will ever hear. It is about how young people in a section of New York widely regarded as a site of unspeakable violence and tragedy created an art form that would sweep the world. It is a story filled with ironies, unexplored connections and lessons for today. And I am proud to share it not only with my wonderful Rock and Roll to Hip Hop class but with C-Span’s global audience through its lectures in American history series. Before going into the substance of my lecture, which explores some features of Bronx history which many people might not be familiar with, I want to explain what definition of Hip Hop that I will be using in this talk. Some people think of Hip Hop exclusively as “rap music,” an art form taken to it’s highest form by people like Tupac Shakur, Missy Elliot, JZ, Nas, Kendrick Lamar, Wu Tang Clan and other masters of that verbal and musical art, but I am thinking of it as a multilayered arts movement of which rapping is only one component.

  • Virtual Fundraiser to Benefit the Bronx Castle Hill Y Our Story
    Virtual Fundraiser to Benefit the Bronx Castle Hill Y Our Story Every New Yorker deserves the opportunity to achieve their full potential—as individuals, as families, and as neighborhoods. New York City’s YMCA is here to help fellow New Yorkers and our neighborhoods stay healthy in body and mind and gain the skills and opportunities we all need to thrive. Where there’s a Y, there’s a way for all of us to grow stronger, together. Located in the South Bronx, the Castle Hill YMCA is the only New York City YMCA to offer an outdoor pool, as well as state-of-the- art exercise equipment, an indoor pool, child-care while you work out, and a community committed to helping you achieve your goals. It is also the only Y location within the Bronx borough. The COVID-19 crisis has had a significant impact on our community and has caused a devastating financial loss for the YMCA at Castle Hill. Our organization represents thousands of youth and families who live in highly vulnerable communities and rely on our services and resources. The significant loss in revenue may force our organization to shut down some of our core programs including early childhood centers, after school care and learning support from our highly skilled and trained Program Coordinators. To help address the current educational crisis in New York City, we have tapped into our emergency funding to provide a safe environment with Wi-Fi accessibility for students who are unable to attend school of those days. We need your help in order to move forward.
