520 $aThis study examines the impact of hip-hop on black cultural identity formation and development in African-Canadian youth. Through an analysis of existing literature on hip-hop, and by focusing on the Canadian context, the research also addresses its pedagogical implications for schooling. In so doing, it analyses the various ways in which hip-hop can be taken up in classroom learning, and speaks to the unique possibilities that alternative schools can offer within this area. Hence, three critical questions guide the course of this research. What is the relationship between identity and schooling? What is the pedagogical relevance of hip-hop culture? Finally, how do these ideas intersect and contribute to the debate on alternative schooling? This thesis seeks to unlock these answers through an exploration of their connections and complexities, in order to contribute to the debate surrounding genuine educational options for black youths.
