Since I‘m a day behind, I‘m catching up with both the #Dog & #Dance prompts today. I haven‘t read this book but I did see he movie years ago. 😢
Alvin Ailey American Dance Company weaves together the most beautiful songs and stories❤️ I have been fortunate to attend two full length performances in my life, and would love to see them once more…

pick#DynamicDs Day 11: Cesaria, a Deaf girl, who uses sign language to communicate, is on her way to a #Dance performance. She was upset when her coach asked her to wear sandals for the #Dance and she preferred to be barefoot. When Cesaria was finally on stage, she simply allowed the rhythm to wash over her and did what was true and right for her body. My full review of this gorgeous title: https://wp.me/pDlzr-rb2
pickI originally checked this out from the library, got 2 chapters in and ran to my bookstore and bought a copy. This book is amazing. It is written with such care and tons of research. The 5 women it focuses on each have small chapters woven into the narrative. Their struggles are glaring on the page, the way they controlled their bodies while struggling with so much racism and socioeconomic challenges.
4.5/5 this is wonderful.
