Dawn-Elissa Fischer is an anthropologist who for the last two decades has been documenting the international implications of anti-racism, Blackness and hip-hop. Her work is most notably distinguished by her groundbreaking film on hip-hop in Japan (Nihon Style) and her involvement in curating special programs and collections at the Hip-Hop Archive and Research Institute at Harvard University—including her Japanese HipHop Collection.
