The Howard alumnus will teach the new on-line course in conjunction with history professor Elizabeth Lewis-Clark.The new graduate seminar in public history will provide a theoretical foundation for Hip-Hop and focus on a theme of urban/Hip-Hop cultural expression.
The class will be taught online by Calloway and Lewis-Clark, but Calloway will periodically come to campus to speak to students. In the class, Calloway openly discusses his views about what’s happening in the industry. "I really hope that one day Hip-Hop will evolve," Calloway said. "I mean, we are the only group of people that pimp our women through music the way that we do. I only hope that through that evolution Hip-Hop doesn’t take the same path jazz took and become exploited to the point of disinterest, like everything else of ours white people get their hands on."
