If you think Irish step dancing (aka Riverdance) and tap dancing have something in common, they do—their origins. As West African gioube dancing mutated into the American jig and juba during antebellum times, one theory is that it fused with the traditional dances of Irish immigrants who often lived and worked in the same spaces as enslaved people or free Black laborers. This combination of syncopated rhythms developed into popular 19th- and 20th-century entertainment, from minstrel shows to jazz revues to Broadway musicals, right on down to 21st century TikTok star and dancer Morgan Bullock. #stpatricksday #dancehistory #blackhistory #irishhistory #americanhistory #goodblacknewscalendar https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp53f4ZyNS_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On This Day in New York City History February 2, 1935: Dancer Anne Raven Wilkinson (February 2, 1935 – December 17, 2018) was born in New York City, New York. Wilkinson has the distinction of being the first African-American woman to dance for a major classical ballet company.

Wilkinson was born into a middle class black family in Harlem. Her father was a medical doctor and her mother a ballet dancer. Her love for ballet was born from watching a performance of the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo, a dance group that she would make history with.

Wilkinson would face difficulties in getting accepted to the Ballet Russe de Monter Carlo. Twice she was rejected before she was accepted at the age of 20 in 1955 by the director of the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo, Serge Denham.

After leaving the group in the early 1960, Wilkinson would dance with a number row groups before retiring in 1974. That would be a short lived retirement. In the same year Wilkinson would join the New York City Opera and dance for them until 1985. In her later years she would serve as mentor to Misty Copeland who was a trailblazer in her own right. Copeland was the first African American to become a principal dancer at the American Ballet Theatre.

Wilkinson passed away on December 17, 2018 at the age of 83.

Modern Women- 21st Century DANCE - A Coloring Book by Julie Lemberger

All illustrations created are derived from dance photography, by renown photographer, Julie Lemberger. They were created from dance performances and dance rehearsals during the first two decades of the 21st Century. Some dances pay homage to early 20th Century dance artists and others are creating something entirely new.

This coloring book is an out growth of work done in an artists workshop that emphasizes one-on-one mentoring, artist-to -artist. It was the brainchild of dancer / teacher / poet, Cori Kresge. She calls her workshop series: PlayingWithMatches because she invites you to be matched with another artist to give each other feedback and support.

Cori started this workshop at the beginning of the pandemic lock-down, and this project was on a list of projects I wanted to do - Cori selected this one to embark upon. Since than I have reached out to more than 40 dancers and choreographers to see if they wouldn’t mind being in my coloring book. I was overwhelmed with the amount of positive responses to the idea, as well as the positive response to the images themselves. It has been a big task - far bigger than I’d anticipated. However, I have grown immeasurably in my artistry, and my Photoshop skills have greatly improved. I’m getting nearer to publishing it - to become a hard copy coloring book to purchase and color and to give as gifts to yourself - while you learn about these amazing women who are leaders and their genre of art: dance - the most ephemeral of the art forms - to this I bring ephemera!

Onward and more later.

Thanks to all the WOMEN / WOMYN / WOMXN who made this possible.

Julie Lemberger

#1 - Culture & Japanese Dance

It’s been two weeks of Dance History 2, and we’ve sure talked about a lot of concepts already. Our discussion stems from the articles “Dance in World Cultures” from Learning About Dance and “Japanese noh, kabuki, and butoh.” After beginning discussion on world concert, ritual, and folk dance, I quickly became intrigued by the complexities that each culture’s dance form upholds.

SO. Let’s get into it. According to the second article we read, the Japanese art form of noh “makes a positive virtue of old age.” What? This seems opposite from Western aesthetic and value in dancers. Why does virtue of age differ between cultures in relation to dance? I think this says a lot about a society’s view on beauty and what it emphasizes as having value. Another philosophy seen in noh is the idea that “what the actor leaves out is most important because our minds will fill in the blanks.” I think this speaks to the general mental capacity that Japanese audiences attain. I’m sure that being exposed to this dance form as part of one’s common culture contributes to the ability to engage and fully experience these performances.

When reading about the technique of kabuki, the reading said that kabuki is learned through kata, codified movement patterns and poses. I immediately recognized the term “kata” because my brother trained in karate growing up. I know katas to be one aspect of the martial art form that students learn and practice different set sequences. This makes me wonder what the relationship between karate and kabuki is. I’d love to find out more about this idea!

Lastly, an aspect of butoh’s technique includes pushing past the limits of self-imposed boundaries to enter uncharted territory. I think this philosophy is applicable to not only other forms of dance but nearly every task you approach. I love how butoh embodies the means to create new discoveries, both mentally and physically.

So much of this information is new to me, and I was especially excited to learn about different Japanese art forms as the culture is very near and dear to me. We love growth and stretching our minds to new places!
