Summary: Within a sociocultural context, Hip Hop is regarded as one of the strongest
popular cultures among today's youth. Realizing how this movement works in a
young person's life, we engaged on researching how this process works and
why, even though it is no longer the same racial resistance culture of the 1970s,
it remains as one of the cultures that most includes young people in social
vulnerability. We seek to know what these young people mean by violence and
how they deal with it. By means of this initial information, I ask: How can the
social inclusion of young people through Hip Hop can minimize the damage
caused by violence in society?
This etnographic research was carried out from Hip Hop events, through the
selection of agents that represent relevance in the movement of the Espírito
Santo state, in Brazil. We conducted interviews in their respective areas of
activity and, at the end of our research, we gathered the information and
compared the similarities and differences of the reports. We perceived how
symbolic violence gains a much greater burden on the lives of all agents and we
analyze what Hip Hop does in the life of each individual. Theorical-
methodologically, the authors who guide us are Ginzburg, in the indexical
perspective, Bourdieu, as regards in the discussions about symbolic power and
male domination, Mauss, in his study on the Gift and Foucalt as regards
biopolitics and power.
