"When did you first fall in love with hip hop?" When they were playing like Public Enemy, KRS-One, Stop the Violence movement, Doug E. Fresh...about '86, 1986." Antonia Anderson is the founder and curator of the Milwaukee Hip Hop Museum. "I started the Milwaukee Hip Hop Museum in 2019 during COVID when I was actually working at home," said Anderson. She works for Milwaukee Public Schools and believes that hip hop can help children with critical thinking, their writing skills, and being more productive in the community. Her home is filled with everything from turntables to images of individuals who serve as pioneers like Afrika Bambaataa and DJ Kool Herc.
