| | | OnScreen at the JET presents NFB in the Library: Sounds and Pressure Reggae in a Foreign Land
| | | At the height of the golden age of reggae, some of Jamaica''s brightest stars left their homeland behind to shine their light in an unlikely hub of Caribbean creativity: Toronto. Getting their sound to catch on in Canada wasn''t easy. These innovators of rhythm and rhyme had to work against racism, scarce resources, and an industry that stigmatized reggae music. But that didn''t stop them from transforming the city into a reggae hotspot. With a powerful message of love and a revolutionary spirit behind them, these visionaries face the pressure head on - and thanks to them, you can still feel the infectious beats of Bathurst Street and Eglinton Avenue reverberating all over the world.
