2023 marks the 50th anniversary of the birth of hip-hop, and the beginning of a sonic, cultural and socio-political revolution that changed the U.S. and the world. To commemorate the anniversary, Brooklyn Public Library and BPL Presents invite you to join us for A NIGHT IN THE LIBRARY: THE PHILOSOPHY OF HIP-HOP. This FREE event will celebrate hip-hop culture past, present and future with live music and DJ performances, talks, film screenings, discussions and contemplative engagements. NIGHT IN THE LIBRARY is an annual event exploring philosophy in unexpected and provocative ways, while focusing on a different and exciting subject area each year. Let this app be your guide.
