Experience how dance & movement from an African & African-American lens shapes the attitudes of marginalized communities & creates a communal sense of dealing with pain, social injustice, & oppression\

This program is brought to the community by the Sandy Spring Slave Museum & African Art Gallery and The White House Studios Dance Tradition. Sponsored by Friends of the Library, Montgomery County.

“Black History: A Living Resistance in Dance and Movement” will focus on understanding dance from an African and African-American perspective, how movement helps to shape the attitudes of our youth and marginalized communities and how today, those movements and the music behind the movements create a communal sense of dealing with pain and social injustices, discrimination and oppression.
