Summary:
Featuring narration by Jeezy, the Atlanta rap superstar who predicted the future when he released "My President" several months before the election of Barack Obama in 2008, Hip-Hop and the White House examines the relationship between the most powerful American cultural movement of the past 50 years and the most powerful position on the planet – the President of the United States. The documentary begins by illustrating how presidential policies in the 1970s and '80s created conditions of oppression and neglect that birthed hip-hop. It then goes on to chronicle how the culture went from ignored and misunderstood by presidential administrations to courted and embraced for its unparalleled influence on American youth.
