Cup of Culture: Scared of Revolution

The legacy of the Last Poets is a signature and essential Black Arts Movement contribution that was part of the African diaspora oral tradition, which includes storytelling, the blues, jazz singing, spoken word, and rap and has had a significant impact on hip-hop. In intimate conversations with a Last Poets member, Umar Bin Hassan, and those closest to him, Scared of Revolution follows the visionary artist as he confronts the hardships of his past and strives to reconnect with his family. 1h 12m.
