Performing on the Upper Lawn of Shangri La, Honolulu-based nationally recognized youth dance program Keiki Breaks utilizes breaking to showcase freedom in movement. The central theme of "Continuum" held in this dance piece encapsulates a full circle of reactions and insights as the group interprets knowledge of the landscapes, histories, and artworks at the museum.
The "Jin, Jîyan, Azadî" (Woman, Life, Freedom) t-shirt held in conclusion serves as a reminder to the audience that hip hop and its elements connect us globally on humanitarian issues in the practices of study, self-expression and open-mindedness. Just as dance has been utilized as a vehicle for protest, the demonstration of this phrase is a call to recognize the universal value in freedom of expression and its importance in building healthier futures for communities, women, and families.
