Screening and Discussion of "Uprooted - The Journey of Jazz Dance"
In celebration of Black History Month, Dean College will hold a screening and discussion of the film “Uprooted: The Journey of Jazz Dance,” a documentary that “celebrates the history, lineage, and future progressions of jazz dance. Commenting on political and social influences, it is an honest conversation addressing topics such as appropriation, racism, socialism, and sexism.” President Kenneth Elmore will host this discussion with Professor Robin Gee, a commentator within the documentary. This event is free and open to the Dean College students, faculty, staff and local community.
