Bill Cosby and Alvin Poussaint have a new book coming out. Here is an interview detailing their vision for following "the path from victim to victor."

While I have not yet read the book, I gather from the interview that the message is for people to mobilize. Mobilization is key in hip hop culture as well as in realizing the possibilities of globalization. From moving your body (to a funky beat) to marching in protest (or in celebration) to circulating a demo or mix tape, flyer or brochure- hip hop moves! As an educator I know that if we, the adults, the examples, don't "bust a move" these first generations to be "worse off" than their parents will continue to regress. We have to teach our children to move!
