| Why shouldn't these girls use their bodies? What else have they got to offer? Why are all of you so down on them? They have a right to do whatever they want, however they want and you have no right to be so hyper critical. Leave them alone. Posted by MAX |

| I hate hearing that people think there is NO unity in hip-hop. I believe if there really was no unity the culture would have died out long ago. The less the positive images in the media don't negate the unity of the culture. This alone is proof that we need to show balance within the culture.
Just like with any family you have good, bad, pretty and ugly, but they all show up at the reunion. Hip-hop culture is definitely still united -- we just have to get Uncle Ray Ray and Auntie Keisha to stop showing their asses. (All puns intended!) Posted by dopeswan |

| Wow... I see we have a few degenerates sprinkled on this site.. let's be real folks.. the current state of hip-hop and music in general is destroying souls... All these "Men" and I use the term very loosely on here who say they don't care or why are we so critical obviously don't have sisters, female cousins, and hate their mothers.. Music is food for the soul.. and has "real" effects on the mental psyche.. ( I may be too deep for the "ig-net"..
I'm from the hood and grew up in the projects in the heart of Bed-Stuy.. and its not cool to see young girls carrying themselves un-lady like because what they see on TV (aka the Devil's Numbing Device) and other forms of mass media. I love black women... I think their sexiest beings I've ever seen..I love my mother and all the females in my family so and if any so call man would attempt to exploit them or do them harm would find themselves in the ICU on permanent bed rest (ya smell me)
We need to take pride not only in black women but women in general.. they are the chosen wisdom body of man.. thus the term W.O.Man (Wisdom Of Man)...not from the womb of man.. because the last time I checked I don't have a womb :-)
These women are the facilitators of our continued existence on this planet.. we should enjoy their beauty, but we should not lead them into oblivion. Brothers on here who talk too stupid need to get a clue and stop being the corporate white man's dog. Posted by nu-gen |

| NO UNITY IN HIP HOP???? Posted by PRINCE PAUL |

| I think people should stop buying this music and supporting an industry that uses women the way the hip hop industry uses women. It's degrading. Someone should stop these people from making so much money. We need to get back to the golden era of Hip Hop. Where are this generation's Native Tongues. Posted by rhadika |

| How can there be unity in hip-hop? this hip-hip world is growing every minute. millions of people are into hip-hop all over the planet. its impossible that all these people should agree on any one issue, except supporting hip-hop. Its a new world in hip hop - more global and diverse in everyway, especially in opinions and ideas. Posted by poppa |

| I think that as soon as the industry became about getting money the problems started. So what we could do is remove that which causes the problem but then the questions is will it go back to what it was... pure Posted by *An Anonymous Guest |

| first things first.. before hip-hop the music industry was shady.. and it will remain shady.. all it did was allow blacks who are uneducated to partake in it and make a lot of money by degenerating the youth.. The world isn't united.. what planet ya'll live on.. obviously not this one.. look around you there is no unity anywhere (well except with the gays and that don't count cuz they dont have a choice but to stick together).. hip-hop needs to transcend to a new level of greatness not go back in the past.. get it right..

| UNITY is not the same as riding the bandwagon. Following is what you do when you can't think up something original. Unity is when you and other like minded people feel the same way about something and are willing to fight for the same causes. Posted by *An Anonymous Guest |

| I am upset at the people on here who believe that just because people are making money from the art form they live, breathe and create, that there cannot be UNITY. Hip Hop began as a resistance movement. Now it's a way of life, and a business model. I think we can have our cake and eat it too! Posted by *An Anonymous Guest |

| Can we hear from Abby and Jennifer? I find it interesting that we are seeing the lives of these people of color from the eyes of two white girls. I'd like to hear what they have to say about what their filming. Posted by *An Anonymous Guest |

| Hip-Hop has always been about battling and being better then your opponent. What does unity even mean? does it mean that everyone is doing the same thing, 1 vision, cuz ya know that is boring. I agree, i wanna hear what Jen and Abby have to say cuz they clearly are stirring some shit up, that aint unity. Posted by *An Anonymous Guest |

| You know this is a dialogue for all so we welcome your opinions. I believe I am doing the right thing by encouraging this conversation about Hip Hop, even if I am a white girl. Posted by jennifer |

| jennifer, i'm really wondering why this question of unity was asked.
hip hop is notorious for creating and sustaining artists committed to uplifting women. this may come as a surprising statement given the nature of discussions on this website.
think about some of the remarkable artists such as Public Enemy, Run DMC, Common, Talib Kweli, Dead Prez, Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco, The Roots and the great MC Lyte. Granted that in this list, few women have been listed - many if not all of the artists on this list have contributed positively to black identity and to womanhood. Not mention, hip hop around the world (check out arabic hip hop and french hip hop esp.) has been used as a catalyst for political change and rarely involve lyrics of misogyny. Maybe hip hop is a hyper-representation of American life, rather than hip hop being the reason for sexism in America. The industry is, afterall, merely 30 years old.
Perhaps instead of asking whether there is unity in hip hop you might consider asking why record labels insist on selling music that is misogynistic rather than putting these music on the radio and promoting them beyond their niche. And what does it mean that 70% of purchasing power lies in white consumers hands? Whatever the customer wants, the customer gets right?

| hi blackjusticeblog.blogspot.com, thanks for sharing your thoughts. i think this is an interesting statement you made:
hip hop is notorious for creating and sustaining artists committed to uplifting women. A lot of people would disagree. but i am glad you think it has uplifted you. more power to you! i totally agree that 70% of purchasing power is white america, and that hip hop has become more sexist and more violent since white people have gotten involved. as for why we are talking about UNITY, i think we need more. but i guess unity in hip hop would actually need social justice, right?

| 发展简史 测绘学有着悠久的历史。杭州洗涤设备有限公司
防腐地板古代的测绘技术起源于水利和农业。古埃及尼罗河每年洪水泛滥后,需要重新划定土地界线,开始有测量工作。公元前21世纪,中国夏禹治水就使用简单测量工具测量距离和高低。公元前3世纪,亚历山大的埃拉托斯特尼采用在两地观测日影的办法,首次推算出地球子午圈的周长,也是测量地球大小的弧度测量方法的初始形式。724年中国唐代的南宫说等人在张遂(一行)的指导下,在今河南滑县至上蔡实测了约300千米的子午弧长。并在滑县、河海测绘

单孔膜曝气器开封、扶沟、上蔡测量同一时刻的日影长度,推算纬度1°的子午弧长,这是世界上第一次弧度实测。1617年荷兰的W.斯涅耳首创三角测量法进行弧度测量,克服了在地面上直接量测弧长的困难。1687年英国I.牛顿根据力学理论,提出地球是两极略扁的椭球体。1690年荷兰C.惠更斯也提出地球是两极略扁的扁球体。后为法国在南美洲和北欧进行的弧度测量所证明。结束了历时半个世纪的有关地球形状的争论。1743年法国A.C.克莱罗发表《地球形状理论》,奠定了用物理方法研究地球形状的理论基础。1849年英国Sir G.G.斯托克斯提出利用地面重力的测量结果研究大地水准面形状的理论。1945年苏联M.S.英洛坚斯基创立了研究地球自然表面形状的理论,并提出?似大地水准面?的概念。
测绘学是技术性学科,它的形成和发展在很大程度上依赖测量方除湿机
航道测量法和仪器工具的创造和改革。17世纪以前,人们使用简单的工具,如绳尺、木杆尺等进行测量,以量测距离为主。17世纪初发明了望远镜。1617年创立的三角测量法,开始了角度测量。1730年英国的西森制成第一架经纬仪,促进了三角测量的发展。1794年德国的C.F.高斯发明了最小二乘法,直到1809年才发表。1806年法国的A.-M.勒让德也提出了同样的观测数据处理方法。1859年法国的A.洛斯达首创摄影测量方法。导热油炉
