520 2 $a"In the Hip Hop Underground and African American Culture, Peterson explores a variety of 'underground' concepts at the intersections of African American literature and Hip Hop Culture. From the Underground Railroad to black holes or from kiln holes to solitary confinement, this project makes meaningful connections across multiple iterations of Black concepts of the underground. Since socially conscious Hip Hop music inherits much of its socio-political and figurative significance from the Black underground it functions as a logical recurring subject matter for this study--situated at Black cultural and conceptual crossroads"--$cProvided by publisher.
