Update #13: Update
Hey Everybody Street Backers,
We just wanted to let you know that
we haven't forgotten you. In addition to being busy filming additional
segments and spending time in the cutting room, we've been designing
t-shirts and posters, printing production stills and making arrangements
for walking tours and skype sessions. We will be reaching out to you
all very soon for delivery details and with updates on the film. Stay
tuned.
Thanks, as always, for your continued support.
Cheryl

Update #10: Rare opportunity to own a piece of art history...
I am so happy to be able to say that we are offering a print of Boogie's beautiful photo through this Kickstarter campaign. This is an incredible piece and a rare opportunity. You can own a part of New York history AND contribute to the film at the same time by pledging through our incentives on our main page.

Update #9: Jamel Shabazz
Jamel Shabazz grew up in the Red Hook housing projects, Brooklyn. He is a sharp dresser and has spent a lifetime studying body language. After giving a number of youthful years to the US army he returned to New York with a mission to document his life. He is a sincere man and uses his pictures to aid young people in choosing a healthy life path. This is one story that I really love – only a man like Jamel could pull this off:
“My projects on prostitution were designed to gather as much information as I could from prostitutes to take to local high schools and encourage young girls not to go down that route. So in a sense I became a street teacher. I was on Delancey Street in the Lower East Side, and I saw a prostitute performing a sex act on a religious figure and I shot it without asking. She started screaming and the customer ran off without paying so her screams summoned her pimp.
I said, ‘With all due respect, before you attack me, let me explain what I did and why I did it.’
I explained and he said, ‘You know what?
I respect you. From this point on you have my permission to come out here anytime and shoot.’ After that, I spent 10 years documenting prostitution on the Lower East Side.”
