Bgirl Herstory, created in 2019 by Bgirl Mantis, is a project to document the stories of old school and new school bgirl generations from the limelight to the underground. 

Mantis started breaking in 2007 learning from many bboys including Lethal from the LES, BoogieMonster of NON crew, and Merlin from Foot Clan. In 2011 she met Rokafella and Kwikstep at a youth center called the Door, and has been down with Full Circle ever since. 

Bgirl Herstory started as an idea around 2010. 

Mantis hadn't heard of many Bgirls from the earlier generations and couldn't find much information about them so she started interviewing Bgirls starting with her mentor Rokafella intending to create a resource for her generation and the generations after to learn their break herstory and find inspiration from Bgirl pioneers and practitioners past, present and future.
