Book Description

Publication Date: March 23, 2007 | ISBN-10: 0786429917 | ISBN-13: 978-0786429912

Tracing the African American dance from the Diaspora to the dance floor, this book covers a social history germane not only to the African American experience, but also to the global experience of laborers who learn lessons from hip hop dance. Examining hip hop dance as text, as commentary, and as a function of identity construction within the confines of consumerism, the book draws on popular cultural images from films, commercials, and dance studios. A bibliography, discography, and filmography are included.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought Provoking, November 23, 2008

Wayne A. Walter (Port Clinton, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Hip Hop Dance: Meanings and Messages (Paperback)

A thought provoking book that gives the reader insight into African American culture and views. The book is far broader than it's title might imply and is not for the casual reader.
