Zusammenfassung:"This is a book about funk: funk music, funk culture, and funk politics. For 'funkateers' or, rather, 'funksters' (i.e., funk musicians and avid funk music fans), funk is more than a form of music. It is a movement. It is a non-conformist culture, a consciousness, and a cosmology-a unique way of being and doing. The Funk Movement was a submovement within the larger Black Power Movement and its artistic arm, the Black Arts Movement. Moreover, the Funk Movement was also a submovement within the Black Women's Liberation Movement that took place between the late 1960s and late 1970s, where women's funk, especially Chaka Khan and Betty Davis's funk, was understood to be a form of "Black musical feminism" that was as integral to the movement as was the Black political feminism of Angela Davis or the Combahee River Collective and the Black literary feminism of Toni Morrison or Alice Walker. This book also demonstrates that more than any other post-war Black popular music genre (e.g., gospel, electric blues, jazz, rhythm & blues, and soul), the funk music of the 1960s and 1970s laid the foundation for the mercurial rise of rap music and the Hip Hop Movement in the 1980s and 1990s. Ultimately, The Funk Movement critically explores funk as a distinct multiform of music, aesthetics, politics, social vision, and cultural rebellion that has been remixed, and continues to influence contemporary Black popular music and Black popular culture, especially rap music and the Hip Hop Movement"--
