How Hip Hop Teaches Social Emotional Learning (SEL) | David Spellmon

In this long-overdue conversation, Manny Faces sits down with David Spellmon, educator, speaker, and author of "Just Like Music: Social Emotional Learning Inspired by Hip-Hop," to explore how Hip Hop culture naturally builds emotional intelligence, self-awareness, communication, and resilience — often more effectively than traditional systems. ----Follow the guests: David Spellmon - https://positivearchersolutions.comMy book: "Hip Hop Can Save America!
