The Remixing the Art of Social Change is a series of events designed to outline the tools and resources necessary to develop curriculum, programs, and work (artistic and scholarly) based on hip-hop culture.

Our field is made up of organizations, companies, and individuals that use hip-hop culture to promote social change and push the envelope of what hip-hop culture can produce artistically, academically, politically, and socially. The presenters at Remixing the Art of Social Change are the artists and educators who never gave up on hip-hop and are still actively working through it to promote love, peace, unity, and having fun. Remixing the Art of Social Change is for people who move beyond hip-hop as purely aesthetic art and see it as a vehicle to build organizations and educate youth and families along with their communities through the arts.

Words Beats & Life, Inc. (WBL) is spearheading the move to the next stage of our field’s development by creating a strategic development plan for excellence, scale, and sustainability to strengthen the network of hip-hop-based youth-serving organizations. This process is being initiated through “Remixing the Art of Social Change”.
