🖤 Black History Through Dance
A Community Outreach Program for Black History Month
Program concept:
A 60–90 minute interactive dance experience that introduces community members to Black history through Lindy Hop, Vernacular Jazz, and the stories of the Black dancers and musicians who created these traditions.
The Big Idea
“We don't just tell Black history. We dance it.”
Participants learn a few basic movements while hearing the stories behind them, connecting dance to Black creativity, resistance, joy, community, and cultural legacy.
