Brooklyn Rocksteady: The Roots, The Scene & The CultureSamuel Gursky, a student at the School of Visual Arts in New York has begun work on a new documentary entitled Brooklyn Rocksteady: The Roots, The Scene & The Culture. The documentary explores the NYC Ska and Rocksteady music since 1981 up until 2011, including interviews from members of The Toasters, The Slackers, The Pietasters, Westbound Train, Victor Rice, The Forthrights, Royal City Riot, The Hard Times, We Are The Union, The Frighteners and more.

It has thus far been completely self funded, and Gursky has started up a kickstarter program to help raise funds for the completion of the DVD.
