Their daring production, lyricism, and fusion of rap and funk was largely responsible for instituting a new sound, propelling the genre forward, and launching the career of hip-hop icon, Tupac Shakur. Their contributions to hip-hop serve as a metaphor for modern conceptualizations of higher education that, in response to COVID-19 precautions, require faculty and staff to reimagine \u2013 or remix \u2013 learning and teaching for the 21st Century. This session will highlight the ways in which critical hip-hop pedagogy challenges faculty to intentionally incorporate distance learning experiences within their courses.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fcf1032 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fcf1032\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4e073a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f4e073a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5959934 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5959934\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8622973 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8622973\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Live Session Recording<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-818039e elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"818039e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<iframe id=\"kaltura_player\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnapisec.kaltura.com\/p\/2903541\/sp\/290354100\/embedIframeJs\/uiconf_id\/45950661\/partner_id\/2903541?iframeembed=true&playerId=kaltura_player&entry_id=1_k843o8h4&flashvars[streamerType]=auto&amp;flashvars[localizationCode]=en&amp;flashvars[sideBarContainer.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[sideBarContainer.position]=left&amp;flashvars[sideBarContainer.clickToClose]=true&amp;flashvars[chapters.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[chapters.layout]=vertical&amp;flashvars[chapters.thumbnailRotator]=false&amp;flashvars[streamSelector.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[EmbedPlayer.SpinnerTarget]=videoHolder&amp;flashvars[dualScreen.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[hotspots.plugin]=1&amp;flashvars[Kaltura.addCrossoriginToIframe]=true&amp;&wid=1_g7hjlv4n\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozAllowFullScreen allow=\"autoplay *;

In 2016, his Harvard Graduate School of Education convocation address \u201cLift Off\u201d went viral, reaching over thirteen million views and prompting Hillary Clinton to praise, \u201cIt\u2019s young graduates like [Livingston] who make it clear that America\u2019s best days are still ahead.\u201d Since his pivotal speech, Livingston has been featured on CNN, NPR, BBC, Good Morning America, and in news outlets across Europe, Australia, India, and South Africa. His convocation address was published as a book by Spiegel &amp; Grau in 2017. A believer in the enormous opportunities that education provides, Livingston inspires students, educators, and communities with his conviction that every child has the right to \u201clift off\u201d and achieve their dreams. Drawing on personal experiences as well as scholarship, Livingston examines the role of hip hop and spoken word poetry in student experiences in higher and postsecondary education. An impassioned and dynamic speaker, he incorporates creative elements into his lectures such as spoken word poetry and audience collaboration. Livingston has earned master\u2019s degrees from Columbia University and Harvard University, and recently completed his Ph.D. in Educational Leadership &amp; Cultural Foundations at the University of North Carolina in Greensboro. He lives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina with his wife Lauren and daughter Joy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rise of the Digital Underground: Curriculum design, instruction, and critical hip-hop implications for distance learning Date:March 30th Time:2:00pm In this presentation The alternative hip-hop group, Digital Underground, ruled Bay Area airwaves in the early 1990s.
