In our schools, hip-hop culture is the dominant culture among the
students. In Youth Culture Power: A #HipHopEd Guide to Building
Teacher-Student Relationships and Increasing Student Engagement, Jason
D. Rawls and John Robinson, educators and hip-hop artists with
experience in the urban classrooms, focus their efforts through
Hip-Hop Based Education (HHBE). They argue that hip-hop culture could
be useful in building relationships and building student engagement.
The approach to achieve this is Youth Culture Pedagogy (YCP). YCP is
based in a foundation of reality pedagogy (Emdin, 2014), culturally
responsive pedagogy (Ladson-Billings, 1995), and HHBE (Hill, 2009;
Petchauer, 2009). In this volume, the authors lay the groundwork for
YCP and how they envision its use within the classroom. In Youth
Culture Power, the authors put forth their C.A.R.E. Model of youth
pedagogy to help teachers create a positive learning environment by
building relationships and lessons around students’ own culture.
Instead of forcing students to give up the things they frequent, Rawls
and Robinson feel teachers should discuss them and when possible, use
them in lessons. The purpose of this book is to present a fresh take
on why educators should not discount the culture of youth within the
classroom.
