    About this ebook

    Zulu Dawn is a unique photo-documentary record of those early days from 1984-1990. At first, dancers imitated what they saw on videos such as Malcolm McLaren’s ‘Buffalo Gals’ and in the film ‘Wild Style’, yet before long they exercised their own talents and cultural influences on the development of rap, deejaying, graffiti art, and dance.
