Born in the United States, Hip-Hop as a language and social milieu presented itself as a voice from and to the street, at a time where the street needed a critical voice. As a construct of five elements- Emceeing, DJing, B-Boying, Graffiti and Knowledge; Hip-Hop provided the movement with a narrative that was both critical of itself as well as critical of the legal liberal method it employed. Concentrating on the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s to date; the aim of this book is to highlight places outside traditional International Legal Discourse that use a different language and create a different milieu for resistance. In an effort to assert that the ultimate lesson of Hip-Hop for liberal legality is that, just in the same way art on its own will not bring justice; human rights or law and order might not either.
