in particular, you're talking about harlem and the fact that harlem transitions from largely white communities to an african-american community in the course of 10 or 15 years. the plus is you have a cultural renaissance that happens. it happened in other places as well in terms of other people from different geographical locations come together and wants to develop more pride in their culture, and their accomplishments. also, i think have an impact on the culture of the larger community. we talk about the harlem renaissance, it is different from the negro renaissance. there is a harlem renaissance in chicago, and los angeles, all over the country. it is the coming together of individuals and one place. and seeing what they have in common. and celebrating what they have in common. in talking about it in writing, illustrating it in their art as it jacob lawrence does. in music, and in theater. all of those things are the positive things that come with this migration in the coming of together of people from different places. especially in places like new you have people from the caribbean and ot

and east harlem. african-americans originally from the u.s. south, west phone --rom and the anglophone caribbean countries like jamaica, antigua, and barbados, and spanish-speaking people coming from puerto rico, cuba, and panama. each of these peoples brought their own musical traditions to the neighborhood schools and housing projects that they lived in, and over time, these traditions fused them more in the most remarkable ways. by the 1950's, the clubs, theaters, and churches and schools in these neighborhoods were places where you could hear afro-cuban music, mambo, doo-wop and rhythm and blues, beebop and dixieland jazz, and calypso. by the 1960's, these musical forms began to evolve as the american-born youth began to transform them, giving rise to salsa, funk, and latin soul. after a while, the white population of those neighborhoods largely moved out, leaving only a few people left behind. but what you had in the bronx was a mixture of more people from different parts of the african diaspora

harlem, midtown manhattan, the village in the lower east side, where culture makers and entrepreneurs, when they saw what was going on in the bronx, where in a position to market what they saw nationally and globally. so, before going into these three underlying factors, the cultural capital the bronx, the tragedies that struck the bronx, and the proximity of the bronx to culture making centers in new york, i want to give you a brief hip-hop timeline. most scholars think the big bang, which launched hip-hop, took place at the parties held by cindy campbell and her brother, aka, dj cool at the community center of a housing complex at 1520 sedgwick avenue in 1973. there, the dancers of the party would go crazy if they used two turntables and sections of popular records, which they called break beats, into 10 minutes of percussion -- pure percussion bid after several successful parties at the youth center, he decided to take his sound system into a public park 10 blocks north of his house, cedar park, using electricity from the bottom of a lamp post. thousands of young people came to the

i'm proud of being from harlem. i want that renaissance to take flower in all black americans and be something that all americans can enjoy. and we can do that if we continue to keep the struggle going and keep doing the positive things that create change. >> look at what you have become. thank you for being with us this morning. it was great to have you on with a message of clarity and a message of hope. can a rekareem abdul-jabbar. >> great talking to you. i got a new book coming out about becoming kareem. >> really? it's coming out? okay. >> for young readers, in november. >> we will be checking it out. it will be out in november.

baldwin -- the writer james baldwin described police officers walking through harlem like occupying soldiers in an occupied country. this has been going on for a very long time. it is the responsibility of the government, be it a republican administration, i was a bush hire in the justice department. the job of the president is to promote democracy. under the constitution, we are responsible for establishing justice. any administration that fails to establish justice should be called out about it. because they are failing to do the job of the constitution. host: robert is on the independent line from new york. caller: first of all, i think it is very strange that you are talking about justice. once you start bringing in military equipment to the police force, don't you follow that up with a militaristic tactic of the police force, followed up by u.n. police force, and the days of officer friendly are gone. i think the last eight years of gotten out of hand. guest: i think it took much longer than eight years to get out of hand. that is something that all members of the federal government hav

voodoo is often misunderstood because of what people have seen in harlem movies. the high priest insists it's not harmful. moving. away via. voodoo is not even. it's not the dalin call if you are a believer and someone thinks badly of you. won't do we defend you. some say. it is a definite no. even if it ever exhausts he's not here at work. they know figures for the number of devotes he's but everyone in benin is connected to the murder. even those who follow at the fates often rely on it in the hour of need. this is the dole of no return. it was from this point to thousands of african slaves was sold off to work in the americas. they left with nothing except they believe in voodoo. which they clung to as a reminder of home. and that's why it is as popular in new orleans as it is here and rita. for many from the diaspora of the west african like regime remain. voodoo has become a connection to a neglected identity. there's a shift in vibration the younger generation. want to loudly proclaim it be a part of the tradition in a way that few. of the previous generatio
