About Hip Hop Dance: Meanings And Messages
Product description 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. Review “presents some compelling arguments that need to be heard and discussed...clear...a must-read”― School Library Journal; “readers will be lead to see hip hop dance from a new perspective”― Dancer. About the Author Carla writes on a variety of topics.
