Beyond the Schoolyard
In the late 60's-early 70's the Bronx was known for its community parties (block parties, park jams) Known as the first hip hop jams where the dj's would provide the music and people would get down, this became the epicenter of graff artists, dj's, bboys and eventually emcees, this was the melting pot of the different scenes that became hip hop. 
Now, 30 years later we are still doing it. This jam is inspired by those who started the jams, and to showcase it's evolution from a neighborhood thing to a global sub- culture the progression of the dance, the new mediums of the art and by how so much has changed but even more importantly... how things have stayed the same.
