Hip Hop 4 Revolution

Neat and informative article by film maker/activist Iara Lee on the power of HH as a medium for revolution. Good reading for anyone who thinks hip hop is all about gunz n hoes, and also worth a quick glance for brief introductions to Middle East MCs that may not have blipped on yr radars yet. Lee's upcoming documentary Cultures Of Resistance sounds like one to watch out for too.
