This is the FIRST playlist that features Graf Writers, Bgirls, and DJs. Watch the entire playlist. Come to class ready to discuss: 1) Which video on the playlist spoke most to you and why? 2) How and why is this rhetoric? How and why is this black women's rhetoric? 3) What connections can you make to the rest of the semester? No writing is due for class.
