When people ask why Australians love roller skating...

[NFSA National Film and Sound Archive of Australia @NFSAonline]

For today's Wonderful Wednesday, this is the OLDEST film ever shot in Australia, in October 1896 at Sydney's Prince Alfred Park!
Hugo Weaving said it's 'both of its day, yet somehow essentially timeless'.

In fact, Black skaters protested segregation at rinks with “skate-ins” in the 1960s.

In 1963, Ledger Smith skated from Chicago to D.C. over 10 days wearing a sign that said “Freedom.” He skated nearly 700 miles to see MLK Jr.'s “I Have a Dream” speech https://t.co/76ALkEVRBr

The roller dance, born in LA how shows the film “Roller Dreams”, has been one of the sports more practiced during the lockdown https://t.co/yKrWpDGv3n #socialmedia #sport #rollerskating

Tonight’s Backyard Cinema movie is ROLLER DREAMS, a 2017 doc I somehow just found out about even though it checks multiple boxes of things I’m strangely obsessed with: (1) the Venice Beach Boardwalk, (2) 1984, (3) roller boogie/dance movies & (4) docs about fads/niche sports.

{english also} El Roller Dance es conocido mundialmente gracias a películas que Hollywood se encargó de hacer llegar al público más joven con historias cursis que calaban entre los que las veían

One documentary that I haven’t seen anyone talk about is #RollerDreams on Hulu. It’s about the roller skating culture of Venice beach that was started and fueled by black skaters, how they got pushed out and gentrification moved in. Powerful.

Check it out.
