From the beginnings of hip-hop in New York during the 1970s, women are stakeholders in his explosion: dance, grafitti, Deejaying and rap. Not obvious in a predominantly male movement that tends to a certain misogyny.

Discover thanks to the exhibition "Girlz" the pioneers of the movement such as Millie Jackson or Sha Rock of the collective "Funky 4+1" as well as the planetary stars of today via the essentials of the 80s that are Salt N Pepa or Queen Latifah.
