Reflections on the Role of Black Dance In the Contemporary Scene

ArVejon Jones has a passion for jazz dance and for documenting the contributions of the African Diaspora to the wider culture. This performer and dance educator talks about the influences in his practice and shares his thoughts on cultural appropriation and the erasure of some of the prime movers in contemporary dance. In this direct and unvarnished conversation, AJ pulls no punches in the service of his art.
