Two weeks ago a digital editor of news network CNN spoke to the (Music) Journalism students of CAU; last week I got a chance to talk to professor Daniel’s class. I discussed my PhD research, my work as an interviewer, the concept of solutions journalism, my views on current Hip Hop culture from a sociological standpoint, cultural appropriation, and politics. Furthermore, I introduced them to some Dutch Hip Hop (political rap, party rap, and an example of cult. App/overcommercialized rap), and I shared my Tidal playlist…eeyyy.

Contact me (info@kimbykim.com) if you ever want me to talk to your class!

On February 4th, Kim Dankoor was a guest speaker in Dr. Evans ‘Talented and Gifted Young Women’ class. Kim talked about the representations of women and people of color in Dutch media, her Master’s research on how girls in the Netherlands and in America give meaning to the images in commercial Hip Hop music videos and her current research on Hip Hop images and late adolescents’ concepts of self.

“Kim spoke with the young women in my Atlanta Public Schools Research Internship course and my Maya Angelou course, and it was a very enlightening experience” (Dr. Evans, Clark Atlanta University).
