Voices in Action is a full day of learning for all EPS students dedicated to the legacy of Dr. King’s activism. Spend the day exploring a range of activities led by more than a dozen artists, educators, activists, and facilitators. Each session offers a unique opportunity to engage with equity, inclusion, and compassionate leadership in ways that resonate with you.

Hip-hop culture and its founding principles are often misunderstood due to its commodification and exploitation by corporate interests and mainstream media. Few know its humble roots as a tool to unify, uplift, and amplify voices, particularly for youth of color.

Join artist and activist King Khazm as he explores the art, history, philosophy, and ethics of hip-hop—an international phenomenon and billion-dollar industry whose legacy is centered in community empowerment, cultural exchange, and resilience. Khazm shows how hip-hop is much more than just a genre of music; it has the capacity to challenge the status quo, address systemic oppression, and provide opportunities for the development of life skills, civic engagement, and global connections.
