Saturday Vids: Ana "Rokafella" Garcia -- Pioneer Break Dancer
The latest episode of Makers features Ana "Rokafella" Garcia, who broke down gender barriers in the world of break dancing. “It’s very limiting to see a woman always in a thong shaking her butt, that’s just one percentage of what the women in Hip Hop are doing. I’m letting people know, you can be a woman and be a badass breaker. When you see me, you’re seeing excellence and that men don’t have a hold on the word ‘excellence’" she told Makers. She now works with her non-profit organization, Full Circle, to bring hip-hop culture to future generations.
