Brazilian Hip Hop

Hip-hop, as a form of artistic and cultural expression, has a remarkable capacity to promote significant social change. As a communication tool, it has the power to raise awareness about important issues, such as racial discrimination, violence, and inequality, providing a platform for the expression of experiences and perspectives from marginalized communities.

Through a meticulous analysis, accompanied by accounts of experience and reflections that synthesize decades of her research, Thífani Postali invites us to look beyond stereotypes and prejudices, to recognize the transformative potential of hip-hop culture, while also contributing to Folkcommunication studies and expanding the bibliography and reflection on the study of subaltern cultures.
