It’s been 18 years since Tupac was fatally shot in Las Vegas and this morning a notable panel on KNPR’s State of Nevada discussed the rapper’s legacy and the implications of his murder. Among the panelists was Huntington Press Author Cathy Scott, whose The Killing of Tupac Shakur remains the seminal account of the still-unsolved shooting was recently published in its third edition, featuring material that could not previously be published.
The panelists discuss the implications of ‘pac’s death — for music, for his contemporaries and subsequent generations, and for the history of Las Vegas. If you missed this interesting and insightful discussion, you can catch it again tonight at 8 p.m. on 88.9 KNPR.
