5/14 Draft Questions
1. "The undocumented- usually depicted as invisible, passive, and technologically illiterate in the popular imaginary- who are utilizing social media the most heavily and strategically for immigration reform," (Baez, 2016, p. 57). How does using social media for this cause shift the image, and legitimize the fight for immigration reform?
2. "visibility makes UndocuQueers vulnerable, however, they refuse to remain in the shadows," (Undocuqueer Movement). How does the criminalization of race play a role in forcing these activists to stay silent?
3. "The male dominated aspects of [hip hop]" combined with "machista aspects of Latin American culture" "marginalize women in hip hop," (Castillo-Garson, 337). How does this arise despite the anti-establishment roots of the genre of hip hop?
4. "Appropriating stylistic elements," "from other rappers, is perhaps the primary form of cultural transmission in the Hip Hop Nation," (Watkins & Caines, 2014). Despite this emphasis on cultural sharing, why is there such exclusion of certain people from the "mainstream" hip hop community?
