Brief History of American Dances (Part 1): African Diaspora

This series was created to support a History of BIPOC Music in the United States class for high school students. It is meant to give brief context to various dance forms over time and how they connect to the African Diaspora. It is for education purposes only and is ultimately a compilation of other videos to help serve this purpose.

This video defines the term “African Diaspora” as it applies to the United States, the transatlantic slave trade, and dance.
