5/14 Draft Questions
1. In Voicing Citizenship, Baez writes that "cyberspace is placeless and inherently discursive" (p.60). How do these qualities support the politicization of testimonios and the centering of lived-experiences?
2. Castillo-Garsow describes hip-hop in Latin America taking form as an "expression of social realities" (p.337). Thinking about intersectionality, why is it important to have artistic spaces created for and by women?
3. In Watkins & Caines, Bakhtin is quoted as saying that "hip-hop artists rent words from the community for the sake of constructing their own, personal utterance" (p.2). Collective knowledge along with any form of interdependence is often viewed as a weakness; how does embracing the way we learn and riff off one another constitute social change?
4. In "Origin," Taku Amaru discusses the healing power of language and its role in a balanced life. How does this relate to translation, and what information or ideas do you think should not be translated?
