This new Black youth culture raises some critical questions: how has Black America changed, what new circumstances and conditions have affected its evolution, and finally, what is the legacy of that culture at the dawn of the millennium? If Pac and B.I.G. are to be martyrs for the hip-hop generation, let them be martyrs in beginning an intergenerational movement to answer these questions and resolve those problems that threaten to undermine the very fabric and future of Black America. - Bakari Kitwana, 2002
