Show Notes

This week, Dope KNife and Linqua Franqa shake the Shakur family tree, probing the revolutionary lives of Tupac's godmother, Assata Shakur, his mother, Afeni Shakur, and his stepfather, Mutulu Shakur. In the music discussion, they examine how these black revolutionary influences are found in Pac's catalogue as well as rap writ large, from Pac's own "White Manz World" and his collection of poetry, "The Rose That Grew from Concrete" to Common's biographical track, "Song for Assata."
