Description

The first Afro-Latina Hip Hop DJ, Gail Windley, and Rev. Conrad Tillard reflect on five decades of this essential cultural movement. With The City College of New York President Vincent Boudreau as host, hear Windley's experience as a pioneer, in the Bronx of the 1970s, in this emerging musical youth culture. In recent years, she has combined religion with Hip Hop on the radio and at Kurtis Blow's Hip Hop Church in Harlem. Rev. Conrad Tillard, who teaches classes on Hip Hop history and the civil rights movement at City College, joins Windley in a conversation that ranges from Hip Hop's origins as a positive platform giving voice to young people in under-resourced communities to mentoring emerging talent and combating negativity in Hip Hop for the next generations of artists and listeners.

Guests: Gail Windley / DJ Flame, host of "The Anointed Mic Check" show on WHCR 90.3 FM, The Voice of Harlem. Rev. Conrad Tillard, activist, author, and instructor in CCNY's Black Studies Program.
