Presentation in the morning...Index cards

From the syllabus
Presentation 1: Due Tuesday, Sept. 29

Bring in an object that represents the intersection between hip hop and American culture. How does the object signify a tradition older than itself—go deep and philosophical… while at the same time represent a progression into something fresh or new or is it all an illusion, a trend, hip hop culture just a cycle human-kind has cycled through before and will again—all that changes is the treads?

Be prepared to share. Write a brief profile on the object justifying its inclusion in the archives (100 words or so). You will post the written response on the blog. I’ll take photos.
