IMG_3968 When Spike Lee released his iconic film, Do the Right Thing in 1989 the world was introduced to Bedford Stuyvesant, one of Brooklyn’s most notorious neighborhoods.  But rather than display the area as a crime ridden mess, Lee gave it a more human feel.

To commemorate the film’s 25th anniversary and celebrate it’s role in helping to shift the negative perception of Bed Stuy, the city of New York renamed Stuyvesant Street between Lexington and Quincy, “Do the Right Thing Way” since many of the scenes were filmed there.  Spike Lee celebrated the honor by throwing a free block party this this past weekend that featured appearances by Public Enemy, Erykah Badu, and Wesley Snipes. Check out my style sightings from the event below.
