[From Wikipedia] Don “Campbellock” Campbell (born January 7, 1951 in Saint Louis, Missouri) is an American dancer and choreographer best known for having invented the “locking” dance, and for his work with the Lockers….
In 1971, Campbell joined the cast of Soul Train…. He was a featured dancer until 1973, when he was removed from the program for requesting that performers be paid. He then recruited other dancers who had been removed for the same reason, and with them founded the Lockers.
“The Lockers emergence on the dance scene changed the face of dance not only for street dancers but for dance in general and has made street dance a true American art form.”

TIL how soulless Soul Train apparently was! … I’m probably the only guy under 20 who even remembers being told what Soul Train was.
