With its huge dance floor, the Savoy became a big success overnight, attracting some of the best dancers and musicians in the New York area.Within ten years, the Lindy Hops was sweeping through the United States and became a symbol of unity, as young people of all racial(种族的) backgrounds crowded into dance halls to swing the night away.
