Surprisingly, the breakdancing art form is very similar to self-defense movements possibly developed in Brazil between the 16th and 19th centuries by kidnapped people who were enslaved and forced to work on large Portuguese sugar cane farms called Engenhos.

Dr.Black,
I'm doing some research on public housing and I came across the Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority. It states that this was the first housing authority in the United States. I'm trying to see what involvement did the Rockefeller family have in this?

We are NOT Americans due to the same reason as with Africa.
I sat and listened to my thoughts and had some interesting questions such as, why are WE never relative to the Khoisans or the Heroro? Are these…
