“Vista Grande High School (VGHS) invited Dr. Elliot Gann and Diné rapper Def-I for a two-day presentation and workshop on Nov. 2 and Nov. 3. Together, the pair taught high school students beat-making and rapping techniques, while explaining how music, in this case hip hop, can be a healing force in their lives.
The event was part of the Indigenous Education Initiative grant Vista Grande High School received from the New Mexico Department of Education.” – Taos News
