Marshall Keys - A DC Legend Defines Resilience

When we asked saxophonist Marshall Keys about resilience from a musician’s perspective, he had to pause. Playing music has always been a joy, he said, and he could not imagine doing anything else. And playing in Washington, DC, in his early years was especially magical. You could play music every night of the week, and make a living, he told us. However, he still offered a nuanced discussion about resilience, surviving and thriving as a musician, and the song that brings him joy. Did Keys also record a song with Chuck Brown, the Godfather of DC’s authentic sound, go-go? Listen to find out.

We Cast A Shadow

Listen In! Our book talk on We Cast a Shadow by Maurice Carlos Ruffin. Our new favorite New Orleans author evokes a humor packed review of a book that reflects on a world that is far from funny. Demelanization, racism, work and family relationships weave themselves together to provide a chilling look at how a tainted sense of self can haunt a family in ways we never imagined.

Art Of Noize

The State Must Provide - TDP Be Reading Book Talk With Adam Harris

𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗺 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘀’ father, an Alpha, taught him the basic dap when the younger Harris was five years old. This lesson was emblematic of how his father wanted Harris and his siblings to grasp the fundamentals to be set up for success in life. With that sense of great expectation, Harris attended Alabama A & M University and discovered that the foundation of his father's lesson, and exposure to inequities in America, gave him a critical understanding for the disparities in and around his college town. Alabama A & M had been historically underfunded, and it showed. Harris observed the imparity between A & M and neighboring University of Alabama Huntsville, and he was driven to understand why. The answer became his book, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦: 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢'𝘴 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘏𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘈𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘉𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘜𝘯𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘭 -- 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘰 𝘚𝘦𝘵 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘙𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵.

Our conversation between these two friends is reflective, instructive, and funny. Pull up and learn who taught Mitch resilience, how Tristan responded to advice that he would have to cut his locs to succeed professionally, and what music is allowed in the whip.

A Tour de Roosevelt chat with Julian Hipkins - A Dap Project Conversation

Experienced educator and school leader Julian Hipkins III organized the first annual Tour de Roosevelt, a community bike ride through the neighborhoods where Roosevelt students live. The Tour was not just a great event to support the high school, but also a personal triumph for Hipkins. During the pandemic, his young daughter learned to ride a bike, and he found it increasingly harder to walk alongside her as her distance and speed increased. After years away from the bike, he hopped back on, and soon began regular solo rides to clear his head. These rides connected to his earlier reading about biking infrastructure and community building, and sparked the idea for a community ride. The collective joy of a good ride helped to restore what the months of stress and isolation had broken. The Dap Project chatted with Julian about what the ride meant to him, the influence of his Morehouse education, and the music that brings him joy.
