Then, it gained momentum in the 1980s thanks to the New York City Rap Tour that took place in 1982 and took breaking all around the world.

Paris 1924-2024 – An Irish Olympic Journey


The document under study is an extract from online exhibition about the vision of the Olympics from the Irish side.

We have learned that the 1924 Olympics in Paris was a milestone for Ireland because it was the first time that Ireland could compete in the Olympics as a free nation. On top of that, it was also a way for Ireland to celebrate all the evolutions in women’s and disabled people’s rights. Moreover, the 2024 Games have shown to the world equality between men and women and also a form of inclusion for those who have disabilities.
