RBG Street Scholars Think Tank's Purpose:
This Educational Program and Research Project is Dedicated to Further Building the Hip Hop--Black Liberation Movement Connection by Integrating Conscious Digital Edutainment with A Scholarly Self Directed Learning Environment.
N.B. June 3, 2007: From this point forward all post in the article /group blog section without thumbnails will be delete by the editor/RBG Street Scholar. This is because such posts compromise the formating of the zine. Furthermore, we refuse to get side tracked with eurocentric rap/pop culture. So, if posts don't jell with the RBG Movement / Rap Genre and the academic nature of the zine,again, they will be deleted. This is not a democracy, but an educational research project; and as such we intend to stay on point regarding our edutainment mission, goals and objectives. Please don't allow the title to make you get it twisted, the full title is RBG Hip Hop/Conscious Rap Music Wikizine.
Anyone who has a problem with this please start your own zine, it's free.
Asante(Thank You) for your contributions.
This Zine is a Hip Hop / Rap Music guide with photos,audio, videos, links, feeds, news, comments, group blog and forum. Special focus on Hip Hop History, Underground /Indie and the Positive and Socio-politically Conscious Rap Genre / Artists, RBG Style; along with links and extensions to each of the integral aspects of hip hop culture. Including Knowledge, DJing, MCing, Break Dancing and Graffiti.
Please take some time to browse.Your contributions are welcome and encouraged if you're looking for a scholarly, and at the same time entertaining, place to expose your work and help build a comprehensive multi-media resource for others to learn from. It's what we make it--a project in evolution and always under construction.The more of us that have something to share on the subject contribute, the better this resource will be for those wanting to do research.
"Of All The Disciplines Of Study, History Is Best Qualified To Reward All Research". Thus, let's commence the discourse with a brief historical overview.
The Political Origins of Hip-hop:
> Historically poetry/ rap/ spoken word, literature and music have been combine to play a pivotal role in black progress and power, rebellion, revolt and revolution.
Political Rap Started With the Afrikan Talking Drum.
> Because of the perceived potential of talking drums to "speak" in a tongue unknown to slave masters / traders and thus to incite rebellion, in 1838 these and other drums were banned from use by Africans in the United States.
> H “Rap” Brown, known to many of the 1960's/70's Civil Rights and Black Power Movements as the original master rapper. Rap, a given nickname, comes from his being such an eloquent speaker he would be rappin. For more see Dr. Errol Henderson on Black Nationalism and Rap Music and our Hip Hop Audio History.

WEB 2.0 EDUTAINMENT FROM A NEW AFRIKAN PERSPECTIVE
Greetings, I am (ConsciousPlat) a Nubian Queen who is a singer, writer and poet. I create songs and poetry for the purpose of empowering The People. My mission is to impact many with my poetry and songs. I want to reach as many of my people as possible but even if I reach a few, I am still victorious. We are the most misguided race in the world. We must absorb knowledge and deprogram our minds of all the negative things we were taught about the Black race. We need to know our true self worth and instill knowledge in our youth. The Black woman is at risk because she carries the embryo which adds to the Black population. 
The Black man is under siege mainly because he strengthens the Black family. I see it as a process of elimination. We need to realize we have not yet overcome. I don't promote violence or hate toward other races, this is not the solution. The solution is working toward the unification of our race. We need to spread knowledge, mold our youth and elevate our minds. I would like to thank all of you who have shown me support. Please continue showing your support by spreading the word about Conscious Plat. I would like to leave you with one final message. It is true that we are greatly divided but "we" are partly to blame for the divisions within our race. Many of us choose not to identify with one another which creates divisions. I also believe numerous cultural organizations and religions contribute to the divisions by branching off and becoming separate entities. We need to reach a common ground so that we can become one! When we bond together we will reach our full potential and rise higher than ever before. The time is now! Peace to you all.

The Haitian Revolution is a singular event in history. Never before or since has an enslaved people risen up, broken their chains, and established a new state. Haiti was a beacon of hope and inspiration to the enslaved Africans of the United States. Haiti's history has been turbulent, but not for the reasons given by mainstream historians. Racism underlies their charges that the first black republic lacks "democratic traditions" and is prone to violence. Drawing from a wide range of authors... Read Full Story
