Home Girls Make Some Noise! Hip Hop Feminism Anthology seeks to complicate understandings of Hip Hop as a male space by including and identifying the women who were always involved with the culture. The anthology explores Hip Hop as a worldview, as an epistemology grounded in the experiences of communities of color under advanced capitalism, as a cultural site for rearticulating identity and sexual politics. With critical essays, cultural critiques, interviews, personal narratives, fiction, poetry, and artwork; the contributors are varied, from women working within the Hip Hop sphere, Hip Hop feminists and activists “on the ground,” as well as scholars, writers, and journalists.
