The Black Dancing Body: A Geography from Coon to Cool Book

hat is the essence of black dance in America? To answer that question, Brenda Dixon Gottschild maps an unorthodox 'geography,' the geography of the black dancing body, to show the central position black dance occupies in our culture. From feet to butt to hair to skin and face and beyond to soul and spirit, Brenda Dixon Gottschild talks to some of the greatest choreographers of our day-including Garth Fagan, Francesca Harper, Meredith Monk, Brenda Buffalino, Doug Elkins, Ralph Lemon, Fernando Bujones, Bill T. Jones, Trisha Brown, Jawole Zollar, Bebe Miller, Sean Curran, and Shelly Washington-to look at the evolution of black dance in America and its importance to our culture. This is a ground-breaking piece of work by one of the foremost African-American dance critics of our day.Read More
