Through weekly classes, lectures, demonstrations, and performances-live and on video, students explore dance forms within a sociocultural context. Dances are analyzed over the diaspora for their historic traditions, sacred/ceremonial import, and/or social impact. Classes will include the movement, vocabulary, rhythms and styles of each form, emphasizing intersections of race, class, gender, sexuality as well as national and minoritized identities.
