Dakoda's Discussion Questions

1. How does Kara Walker communicate racial and social issues through a non-traditional form of rhetoric? Would you consider visual art rhetoric?
​
2. What art pieces had an emotional or psychological impact on you when you viewed it or learned about the meaning􏰁of􏰀 the piece? Explain.  

3. How does Kara Walker exude her identity through her work as a black woman, and tackle racial and social issues through her perspective? 

Amari's and Adhel's Discussion Questions

1. Why do you think J. Cole didn't include "Be Free" on an album?​​
2. Do you think hearing J Cole, an artist rap about social injustice and racism encourages others to become more attentive to what happens in their community and that they can help change?​​
3. After the raid happened, why do you think J Cole felt guilty for something he didn't do? ​​
4. Why do you think African Americans sometimes gear away from going to there own neighborhoods, buying property, building it up and investing it into their community? Fear, Validation, Exhaustion?

Daniella's Discussion Questions

1. Did you think of H.E.R. as a Black rhetor before learning about Black rhetoric and its elements?

2. Why do you think H.E.R. decided to produce that video to go along with her song ‘I’m Not Ok’ that she released in 2019? Rather than just creating a new song?
