Reflection blog

When Mrs. Lewis approached us with the idea of having group blogs, I knew it was going to be a success and a great way of teaching ourselves about what both the Black Arts Movement and Hip-Hop movements really meant. I knew that I was going to really teach myself about these topics and essentially become almost an expert on politics in both the Black Arts Movement and Hip-hop of the 80s. When I wrote my first blog it was very academic and very structured, but I soon learned that that was probably too structured and that I should write in a more "blog-like" style. Overall, it was a great experience and I have now learned so much because I was challenged to find the information myself, instead of sitting in a classroom and being lectured.
