52 Blocks: Show and Prove Synopsis

As beautiful and sleek as it is deadly, 52 Blocks merits special conservation efforts as the United States' only existing native martial culture, as it is indeed, the jazz of the martial arts world. Across the African diaspora, there are manifestations of African-derived warrior-dances, capoeira in brazil, mani in Cuba, ladja in Martinique, pinge in Haiti- yet the US offshoot has remained esoteric, because it was suppressed throughout slavery, Reconstruction and Jim Crow and then obscured in the criminal justice system. The history, interviews and training of the martial arts style that created Breakdance and boxing greats like Mike Tyson.

52 Blocks: Show and Prove (2007) is a documentary and history film directed by Kamau Hunter, released on January 1, 2007 with a runtime of 45m. It stars Kareem Ellington, Daniel Marks, Devine Knowledge and Reno Morales.
