Art In Action interview - Lou Piensa on global hip-hop today

On this edition of Art in Action for Nov. 2024 we feature a conversation with hip-hop artist and educator Lou Piensa, based in São Paulo, Brazil. Lou speaks about his work with the ground breaking ensemble Nomadic Massive and reflects on hip-hop as a tool to share experiences, struggles and culture across borders. Lou offers reflections on hip-hop culture today in Brazil and also talks about how artists are emerging from the context of pandemic lockdowns and working to reconnect away from zoom screens.
