The next stop is: 149th Street Grand Concourse
It's there you'll find this rising counter culture voice; hailing from the Melrose section of The South Bronx.
A district with virtually half the population living below the poverty line.
However, 8waves senses a change finally happening as gentrification slowly turns the mainland borough into the latest hotspot; soon displacing it's longest tenured residents.
But it wasn't always that way.
The Bronx burned once upon a time. Almost half of it decimated. All within the mayhem of the 1970's with some blocks resembling Hiroshima/Nagasaki post atom bomb. The ensuing fallout proving to be the most difficult phase for further generations.
Navigating through the murky waters of violent-drug infested neighborhoods can take a toll on the senses.
At night street corners play the backdrop for the walking dead; junkies who no longer could hold out hope.
Heavily influenced by the social tenacity of the late Tupac Shakur; Weathermen Collective was formed in late 2015.
An assembly of free thinkers, artist and creators using their resources to provide change without losing identity in similar struggling neighborhoods.
“No one gives a fuck. We're poor not only in our environment but our way of thinking . You have all these other personalities, going through the same struggles, same temptations but not everyone reacts the same way.”
