California Newsreel is offering up another documentary for free viewing. Black Up: Hip-Hop’s Remix of Race and Identity critically examines the popularity of hip-hop among white youths in America. What is driving this phenomenon, admiration or mockery? Is this simply another episode of cultural theft?
The video will be available for perusal without charge until the end of May. After then the documentary can be purchased simply by going to California Newreel's site. A short trailer is embedded above.
And a big hat-tip once again to Prometheus 6. He has a definite knack for finding free stuff, but I ain’t mad at him though.
