The Lyripeutics Storytelling Project is a design-based research (DBR) study investigating how learning environments, rooted in hip-hop based education and critical literacies, can facilitate opportunities for BIPOC youth to learn (and share) wellness narratives that are endogenous to the cultural communities they traverse. The study explores the affordances of hip-hop artistic practice as a tool for youth to tell stories about their communities cultural wealth.

  Additional Info

  The RAP Lab is a learning ecology, consisting of high school students, college students, educators, researchers, and local artivists, where we utilize the hip-hop arts to cultivate our intellectual abilities, as well as our potential to serve our communities. It is a partnership between the University of Colorado Boulder School of Education and two historic Denver public high schools; North High School and Manual High School. Our learning ecology is cultivated by and for co-learners of color.
