Summary
"Henson examines how the Black lower class of Bahia and elsewhere use hip-hop culture (music, fashion, video, etc) to create metaphoric "quilombos" (safe spaces), securing for themselves alternative social, cultural, and political systems and distinguishing themselves from "Brazilianness" and an Afrocentric Black diasporic middle class"--
