Atlanta has always been a city of distinct neighborhoods and tight communities. That's where its hip-hop story begins.
In this session, Dr. Regina N. Bradley traces the streets, studios, clubs, and gathering spaces that turned Atlanta into a hip-hop capital. Through lyrics, media, and historical context, she asks how neighborhoods become origin stories and how geography shapes culture and memory.
Come ready to hear the city differently.
The session includes a 45–60 minute presentation followed by facilitated discussion and Q&A.
