Hip Hop as an art form can be used to teach activism and science, creative
writing skills and math, some say it’s the language of our youth. Producer and poet Bomani Armah skillfully uses hip hop to teach young people the power of perspective and the importance of telling their own story. There is a fascinating link to be made between the story of struggle for African Americans living in the United States and Palestinians experiencing Israeli Occupation. How can these connections be forged as oppressed peoples all over the world. The Global African host Bill Fletcher looks at these stories with Bomani Armah, D.C. based poet and educator, Jasiri X, emcee and activist, and Yousef Munayyer, executive director of the U.S. Campaign to End Israeli Occupation. teleSUR
