On Awakening Knowledge of Self: Don’t Sleep During the Revolution
Friday June 6, 2025 9:15am - 11:45am CDT
On Awakening Knowledge of Self: Don’t Sleep During the Revolution explores the intersection of Hip Hop’s fifth element - Knowledge of Self - with themes of identity, voice, leadership, history, and culture. Attendees will be empowered to connect with their authentic selves and embrace their unique stories as critical elements of their educational practices. This engaging session features storytelling, original spoken word performances, lyrically written presentation slides, a creative writing activity, and a simulated open mic experience. Attendees are asked to reflect on the question: how does my knowledge of self inform how I structure conditions for equitable student learning and engagement?
