Episode 4: “Who We Be”: DMX, Resilience, and Counseling on College Campuses

On this episode we are joined by Kim Davalos, Nate Nevado & Adam Freas who discuss their work counseling youth on college campuses through Hip-Hop. We open this conversation by honoring the late great DMX, who throughout his life and career modeled resilience and unapologetic authenticity. We then consider how those core tenants of Hip-Hop play an essential role in how we theorize and deliver Hip-Hop based interventions on college campuses.
