Davey D served as the music programmer for that show. From there he went on to program 8 of the urban music radio stations featured on Sprint Radio. Most recently he was featured on the cover story of Urbanview Newspaper here in Oakland. He was also profiled in the January edition of The Source Magazine as being one of the Top 10 most Influential people in the country when it comes to dealing with Hip Hop and politics.

He helped put together a special addition to that exhibit that focused on bay Area and West Coast Hip Hop. Yerba Buena drew its highest number of visitors ever for that exhibit. Davey D has been a featured speaker at high schools, universities and community centers throughout the country. Ice Cube shut down filming of his movie the morning he heard, and chartered a plane and flew out immediately. Another rapper, Fat Joe, was in a bowling alley when he heard.

He was furious that Ice Cube and Westside Connection had done disparaging songs about him and betrayed his friendship and added fuel to the fire. So when he was in that bowling alley, Fat Joe heard about the summit, but he was scared of flying and he hated driving.

He showed up, in the middle of a Chicago snowstorm, with his bowling shoes on! We were all asked not to speak about everything that was said at the summit. A lot of people were very earnest, honest, vulnerable and let their guard down, revealed a lot of personal background information: that was necessary, in order for peace to be established. And everyone was there, from Too Short to Snoop Dogg.

And there was a long footprint to that summit. After that, Snoop Dogg started to teach and do his football league for kids, and things shifted. The financial capital and the entertainment capital. But certain cities have a real independent streak. I found that the Bay had a scene they were very proud of and was very entrenched in the Black community: a dance and funk scene going back to the sixties. So many things. Artists like Sol Development bring a revolutionary social-justice spirit to the table.

So does muralist Rachel Wolfe-Goldsmith aka Wolfpack. They come out of that community. Professor Dave "Davey D" Cook is iconic pioneer in the fields of social media, independent radio and Hip Hiop journalism. As a syndicated radio personality on Hard Knock Radio, Cook is renowned for his courageous inquiry concerning key issues facing oppressed peoples within and outside of the United States.

Professor Cook teaches courses concerning African American music as well as Black creative arts and history in the Department of Africana Studies. He also co-teaches the very popular and large Hiphop, Globalization and the Politics of Identity course. This course is well known among students as presenting curriculum that "changes lives" and it is also a course in which a surprise music industry friend may come help teach.
