Stereotypes While the mix of sounds that makes Black Violin a special act was an unconscious outgrowth of the music Kev Marcus and Wil Baptiste loved, Baptiste says that the group very consciously rails against stereotypes from all sides. “We’re breaking stereotypes in so many different ways,” he proudly professes. “We’re challenging the idea of what a violin can do and what a black man can do. If you come to a Black Violin show, you’re going to see a big black guy not only playing violin well, but doing it in a way that’s never really been done before." Baptiste and Marcus use their own atypical story to inspire kids coming from the same impoverished background that the duo came from. “The kids go crazy over our show,” says Baptiste. “They look at the way we look and the way we dress and are blown away that we’re doing this…You can see the kids are forever changed. ” 1. Use context clues to determine the meaning of "atypical". 2. What can you expect to see at a Black Violin show? 3. Black Violin is all about breaking stereotypes.
