Episode description

This week, we're dropping one of our favorite episodes from Sportly, a new podcast by Immigrantly Media. In this episode, sports journalist Kavitha A. Davidson explores the origins of breaking ("breakdancing") in the Bronx and its cultural and social significance. She also addresses the controversies surrounding its inclusion in the Olympics. Does this newfound visibility honor and uplift breaking and hip-hop culture, or does it risk commodifying a deeply expressive art form? In just 10 quick questions, you can find out which presidential candidate aligns with your values. Plus, by taking the quiz, you’ll be entered to win a $1,000 Amazon gift card.
