SUMMARY:How Hip Hop Made Atlanta: Atlanta's Hip Hop Geography
DESCRIPTION:Hip-hop found a home in a lot of American cities. It found its voice in Atlanta. \nBut the full story — how the music grew out of specific neighborhoods\, specific struggles\, and specific visions of what the South could be — rarely gets told with the depth it deserves. \nHow Hip-Hop Made Atlanta is a three-part public lecture series by Dr. Regina N. Bradley. Each session examines Atlanta’s hip-hop culture as a lens for understanding American identity\, civic life\, and regional history. \nIn this first session\, Dr. Regina N. Bradley traces the streets\, studios\, clubs\, and gathering spaces that turned Atlanta into a hip-hop capital. Through lyrics\, media\, and historical context\, she asks how neighborhoods become origin stories and how geography shapes culture and memory. \nJoin MODA for this free lecture followed by a Q&A. \nThis program is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities.

It found its voice in Atlanta. \nBut the full story — how the music grew out of specific neighborhoods\, specific struggles\, and specific visions of what the South could be — rarely gets told with the depth it deserves. \nHow Hip-Hop Made Atlanta is a three-part public lecture series by Dr. Regina N. Bradley. Each session examines Atlanta’s hip-hop culture as a lens for understanding American identity\, civic life\, and regional history. \nIn this second session\, Dr. Regina N. Bradley examines OutKast and the Dungeon Family not just as musicians but as cultural theorists\, positioning them as artists who used music\, visual media\, and performance to reframe what Southern Black life looked like in the post–Civil Rights era. Through close analysis of their work and its public reception\, she traces how a group of kids reshaped national perceptions of the South and\, in doing so\, reimagined what American identity could sound like. \nJoin MODA for this free lecture followed by a Q&A. \nThis program is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities.

SUMMARY:How Hip Hop Made Atlanta: Enter the Trap
DESCRIPTION:Hip-hop found a home in a lot of American cities. It found its voice in Atlanta. \nBut the full story — how the music grew out of specific neighborhoods\, specific struggles\, and specific visions of what the South could be — rarely gets told with the depth it deserves. \nHow Hip-Hop Made Atlanta is a three-part public lecture series by Dr. Regina N. Bradley. Each session examines Atlanta’s hip-hop culture as a lens for understanding American identity\, civic life\, and regional history. \nIn this final session\, Dr. Bradley examines trap as a form of critical storytelling: a genre that documents labor\, aspiration\, inequality\, and survival. Trap music is unflinching about the structural realities of Atlanta’s neighborhoods. It is equally clear-eyed about what it takes to build a life\, find agency\, and imagine a future inside those constraints. \nJoin MODA for this free lecture followed by a Q&A. \nThis program is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities.
