Episode 22: Black Christians and Hip Hop
How has hip hop transformed Black Christianity? Dr. Erika Gault, author of the book Networking the Black Church: Digital Black Christians and Hip Hop, joins us to discuss the role hip hop plays among Black Christians. We explore how hip hop and social media have helped people who feel ostracized by traditional Black churches, connections between Christian hip hop and racial justice activism, and what the prevalence of Christian hip hop tells us about the future of Black Christianity in America.
