VTDITC: Hip Hop Studies at Virginia Tech and COVID-19
Weiss, Jasmine (2021)
VTDITC: Hip Hop Studies at Virginia Tech has a heavy focus on community-based learning, we make sure to support our communities’ interest in Hip Hop, and facilitate spaces where people can recognize Hip Hop as a scholarly practice. We have a variety of programs we offer including a monthly seminar, weekly studio hours, media literacy workshops, and live DJ mixes. COVID-19 emerged across the United States around March 2020 and directly impacted everyone's life in various ways. VTDITC programing has had to adjust because of our country’s new norms.
