7th
Annual APACS Book Discussion:
Cultural
Collision and Collusion: Reflections of Hip-Hop Culture,
Values and Schools by Floyd D. Beachum and Carlos R.
McCray, Foreword by Marc Lamont Hill
Cultural
Collision and Collusion addresses the complexity of
problems that surround youth culture and school culture.
By broadening the scholarly dialogue and examining and
disseminating relevant research to practitioners, the
book seeks to provide insight into youth culture
and some manifestations of popular culture (e.g., hip-hop).
In addition, the book examines some of the tensions
that develop when the values of youth and adults collide
in U.S. schools. Finally, the book mines the extant
literature for insight and enlightenment in the best
interest of academic inquiry and practical applicability.
