Since 2001, the U. S. Department of State has been sending hip hop artists abroad to perform and teach as goodwill ambassadors. There are good reasons for this: hip hop is known and loved across the globe, acknowledged and appreciated as a product of American culture. Hip hop has from itsbeginning been a means of creating community through artistic collaboration, fostering what hip hop artists call building. A timely study of U. S. diplomacy, Build: The Power of Hip Hop Diplomacy in a Divided World reveals the power of art to bridge cultural divides, facilitate understanding, and express and heal trauma. Yet power is never single-edged, and the story of hip hop diplomacy is deeply fraught. Drawing fromnearly 150 interviews with hip hop artists, diplomats, and others in more than 30 countries, Build explores the inescapable tensions and ambiguities in the relationship between art and the state, revealing the ethical complexities that lurk behind what might seem mere goodwill tours. Author MarkKatz makes the case that hip hop, at its best, can promote positive, productive international relations between people and nations. A U. S.-born art form that has become a voice of struggle and celebration worldwide, hip hop has the power to build global community when it is so desperatelyneeded. | Build by Mark Katz, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
