Xip Xop oaXaca (Centro Cultural de Mexico and Ukla/UCLA)

"Xip Xop oaXaca" (50 Minutes) Hip Hop is alive and well today all over the world. This film is just another piece of evidence that by taking back identity, territory and community, Hip Hop can be part of a movement for hood liberation. In Oaxaca City, Mexico we see one more city in which young people continue to speak truth to power, through Hip Hop.
