Discussing narratives and stereotypes in two distinctive dance genres, ballet and lindy-hop, this conversation explores themes of cultural appropriation, representation, racial erasure and dispossession of black people in dance. Advocating for a decolonial agenda in dance education and research, the episode touches upon forms of sexism, tokenism and inadequate understandings of inclusion.

Speakers: Dr. Sandie Bourne and Marion Quesne
