UBW X WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY: COMMON MOMENT
This is a private engagement and not open to the public.
Two BOLD Facilitators from Urban Bush Women (UBW) were on campus for the second year of collaboration during the “Common Moment.” Jaimé Yawa Dzandu and Tendayi Kuumba taught choreography from “Hair and Other Stories,” an Urban Bush Women dance-theater work that explores race, identity, and concepts of beauty through the lens of Black women’s hair; choreographed and directed by UBW Co-Artistic Directors Chanon Judson and Mame Diarra Speis in collaboration with the company. They shared an excerpt of the work called “Liberation Train” where students explored their definition of liberation through movement and voices.
