DESCRIPTION:Presented by KPFA Radio 94.1FM & Hard Knock Radio with Marcus 
 Books\n\nHosted by Davey D\n\n"Here comes Lauryn, slaying in double time 
 and flipping her own respectability politics on its head. She's that 
 L-Boogie effortless sexy that became her trademark: wedge-heeled platforms, 
 thigh-high miniskirt with matching spaghetti-strapped tee... "\n\nCelebrate 
 the twentieth anniversary of the acclaimed, highly influential debut album 
 The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill with this eye-opening exploration of Lauryn 
 Hill and her amazing artistic legacy. Released in 1998, Lauryn Hill's first 
 solo album is often cited by music critics as one of the most important 
 recordings of all time. Artists from Beyonce to Nicki Minaj to Janelle 
 Monae have called it an inspiration. In 2017 it was included in the 
 National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress, as well as named 
 the second-greatest album by a woman in history by NPR.\n\n"One, you cannot 
 tell the story of hip-hop or black womanhood in the 1990's without a deep 
 understanding of the prototype for Black Girl Genius that is Lauryn Hill.  
 And two, you cannot tell the story of hip-hop or of black womanhood in the 
 1990's without the fiya-spitting, Jamaican, Bronx-girl pen of Jane Morgan. 
 Indeed, she begat this..."  -- Britney Cooper, author of Eloquent Rage: A 
 Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower\n\nPioneering hip-hop journalist 
 and award-winning author JOAN MORGAN coined the term "hip-hop feminism" in 
 1999 with the publication of When Chickenheads Come Home to Roost, a book 
 now studied at colleges across the country. Joan has taught at Duke 
 University, Stanford and The New School. \n\nDAVEY D is an iconic pioneer 
 in social media, independent radio and Hip Hop journalism and a syndicated 
 radio personality on Hard Knock Radio.\n\nadvance tickets: $12: T:
