DESCRIPTION:Feb. 20 is the third installment of a four-month long series of panel 
 discussions, performances, pre-show workshops, and community events at 
 schools and other community sites and public spaces showcasing artists who 
 engage the four elements of hip-hop in their work and are also immigrants 
 with both the greater hip-hop culture and the pressing dialogue in 
 immigration policy in the United States. The project is a cultural activist 
 series that makes an asserted attempt to bridge the cutting-edge music of 
 artists with their identity as immigrants uncovering some of the important 
 historical and current day dialectic through music, dialogue, activism, and 
 community engagement. Beyond Dreams makes the link between immigration and 
 the arts, and has the capacity to educate all audiences but particular 
 young people about the contributions of immigrants to our culture and 
 musical heritage, especially here in the Bay Area. Each event will showcase 
 the impact of music and art by immigrants and the impact on the hip hop 
 movement and arts and culture locally and globally. This series builds on 
 the 2012 NEA supported program Hip Hop Beyond Gender, a project that 
 illuminated the inherent connection between hip hop culture and the 
 struggle against misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia. Beyond Immigrant 
 Dreams takes the art form of hip-hop and explores it within another civil 
 rights struggle of time in the context of immigration, documentation, and 
 “dreamers.”\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2016/02/09/18782769.php
