Professor A.D. Carson (AKA "Aydee the Great") discusses "academic rap," Black Studies, insights on his album and mixtap/e/ssay 'i used to love to dream'. This episode offers strategies for scholars, students, and arts communities to think about the intersections of genre, sound, form, multimodality, and race. The Poetry Vlog Season 4 debuts with a special edition where you can listen (for free!!!) and read the full mixtap/e/ssay using the below link. This is because of the incredible work being done for Open Access Scholarship by University of Michigan Press' Fulcrum: ✔︎ https://www.fulcrum.org/concern/monographs/m900nw52n.
