In this seminal study of hip-hop literacies, Black identity formation and artivism in Brazil, Dr. Ana Lúcia Silva Souza presents the diverse literacy practices that have emerged within and in relation to Brazil’s hip-hop movement. Ana Lúcia Silva Souza demonstrates how Brazilian hip-hop literacies locate, point out, propose, act and teach others to act for social change. Hip-hop literacies not only teach youth how to resist, but also how to reexist.
"Very few books have done what ‘We’re an Example of Trajectories and Victories’ has done - give us a way to not only understand what youth of the African Diaspora are experiencing, but also offer us guidance on how to learn along with them and from them. Crossing between linguistics, anthropology, and cultural studies this book is dynamically hip-hop and a must-read for anyone thinking about the next 50 years of hip-hop both globally and locally.”

“Dr. Ana Lúcia Silva Souza greatly contributes to Afrodiasporic studies of linguistics, literacies, culture, education and more through the illumination of Hiphop narratives from marginalized Black Brazilian Hiphop educators and artists. Learning from and with these Hiphop educators and artists, Souza tracks Hiphop as a Black educational movement in Brazil revealing vernacular life-giving actions and meanings, what she calls reexistence practices, to counter death-dealing systems and envision freedom.”
