I'm stoked to share this episode with y'all. We recorded this back in May of 2020 while quarantined. We chat about Jesse's origins as a hip hop artist and an educator. He is Jesse the Imaginer of Soul Plug Anonymous and an educator at Madison High School. Hip Hop Lit is a class he developed and is now teaching:
"Hip Hop Lit is a program at Madison High School in Portland, Oregon that seeks to awaken genius and enhance community through Hip Hop culture and expression. ‘Knowledge of self’ is a pillar of the class that studies literature, promotes critical thinking skills and provides opportunities for students to write, record and perform their music. Current students have formed a Hip Hop group called The Remarks, who you can follow on IG @the.remarks" - Jesse
20% of proceeds from Ungrieved vinyl sales will go towards helping fund the creative arts in education through Hip Hop Lit at Madison High School.
