About this episode
We’re concluding this week’s celebration of Chicago’s Black history with something that may feel modern. Last fall, Chicago rapper femdot was professor Femi Adigun while teaching his course “Chicago Culture Through Hip Hop” at DePaul University. Host Jacoby Cochran sat down with him at the time to learn about his syllabus and how Chicago’s history can be traced through rap music.
