“The Vernacular:” Dance/Theatre

“The Vernacular” explores how the word ‘vernacular’ was used to describe ‘non-white’ dancing for a long time. Black dance is a combination of various ‘vernaculars’. We all move in our own way and Black people have a diverse range of ‘vernacular’ dance as Black people are not a monolith; and neither is their dancing. We’ll explore various forms of Black dance and where they overlap.
