Hear from artists who will take the ideas that inspire them and traditions they study and practice to new places: Dayton Contemporary Dance Company, whose Young, Gifted, and Black, tours to Historically Black Colleges and Universities; Urban Bush Women, whose new work, Hair and Other Stories draws upon their use of storytelling, processionals, and nontraditional spaces to engage African American women and other audiences; and Viver Brasil, whose Samba in the Streets brings Afro-Brazilian carnival dance forms to Los Angeles, CA and Birmingham and Selma, AL for processionals and discussions about the history of civil rights activism in the United States and Brazil.
