We are taking a stand for some of the core values of true hip-hop. In the words of one of the first hip-hop artists, Afrika Bambaataa, it's all about peace, unity, love, and having fun.<br /><br />*HIP-HOP: BEYOND BEATS &amp; RHYMES* is a documentary that examines gender roles in hip-hop through the lens of filmmaker Byron Hurt, a former college quarterback turned activist. Conceived as a "loving critique" from a self-proclaimed "Hip-Hop Head," Hurt tackles issues of masculinity, sexism, violence and homophobia in today's hip-hop culture.<br /><br />During the day, Byron Hurt will be joined by Chuck D front man for Public Enemy in Vancouver teaming up with Battered Women's Support Services to feature the film's screenings and engage in talk-back sessions.<br /><br />AT NIGHT, we party!<br /><br />www.bwss.org<br />www.sistahoodcelebration.com<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6542852174522772172-955793232110213443?l=sistahoodcelebration.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sista'hoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00329003462007255025noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6542852174522772172.post-33040338801328394462008-02-01T01:26:00.001-08:002008-02-01T01:26:43.580-08:00When you enter into the act of <b>co-creation</b> you open yourself up to the vulnerable and at times terrifying act of peeling away your old perceptions to find new ones, and you open yourself to doing this in an intensely public way.<div class="snap_preview"> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6542852174522772172-3304033880132839446?l=sistahoodcelebration.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sista'hoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00329003462007255025noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6542852174522772172.post-59336675363727060102008-02-01T01:25:00.000-08:002008-02-01T01:26:14.733-08:00The New &amp; Improved Sistahood Celebration website!

This not only inspires and intrigues the artists but delves them into uncharted creative territory to Co-create an innovative vision.
