Kassa (Harvest Dance).mov

Umoja was a collaboration that brought together 3 artist groups in the West African tradition - Voice of Culture, Duniya Drum and Dance, and Oyin Dance. The event was held at Caponi Art Park in Eagan, MN You can find more info at the events calendars at the artists and park websites (caponiartpark.org, voiceofculture.com, duniyadrumanddance.org). "Wild Scissors: Cut Loose!" is a series of presentations for the performing arts. Music, Dance, Drama are art forms that are "caught within the boundaries of time." In order to preserve these treasures, we commit them to digital form using a video production truck, provided by CTV15 in Roseville, MN. The crew are from CTV15 and BCAT16 in Bloomington, MN: Martha Low, Kevin Low, Emily Mahon, Jim Bird, Scott Englund, Dave Reynolds, and Gina Simmons.

Isso que é dança..., sem pornografia, dança que mostra a essência de sua origem....lindo!!!!

[@djkohoficial]

+Ana Paula Rodrigues entendo a intenção do comentário, mas a origem da dança é intrinsicamente ligada ao sexo e ao acasalamento... não existe dança sem uma certa dose de pornografia

[@testify2edify401]

To those that are perturbed by the white people dancing our African dance I have this to say. As a dance teacher I've noticed that African classes I may teach or even class that I've taken, I mostly see white people taking class and not African americans. This is odd to me. Just because its our culture does it mean we should not partake in it?Is it somehow irrelevant? However im sure the twerking dance classes are busting at the seams.

[@lplein8429]

Kayla gospel poet Nwachukwu well said. Nothing to add.

[@vintageincentives1896]

We don't need to,it comes natural.

[@thewordsmith5440]

Kayla gospel poet Nwachukwu How much do your classes cost? Location and money mean a lot.

[@thewordsmith5440]

Vintage Incentives 1 They dont have knowledge of the names of traditional dances and what tribe and country,they come from

[@illinoisstate4873]

Because we are not African, we are indigenous to america
