British Dance, Black Routes is an outstanding collection of
writings which re-reads the achievements of Black British dance
artists, and places them within a broad historical, cultural and
artistic context. Until now discussion of choreography by Black
dance practitioners has been dominated by the work of
African-American artists, facilitated by the civil rights movement.
But the work produced by Black British artists has in part been
within the context of Britain's colonial legacy. Ramsay Burt and
Christy Adair bring together an array of leading scholars and
practitioners to review the singularity and distinctiveness of the
work of British-based dancers who are Black and its relation to the
specificity of Black British experiences. From sub-Saharan West
African and Caribbean dance forms to jazz and hip-hop, British
Dance, Black Routes looks afresh at over five decades of artistic
production to provide an unparalleled resource for dance students
and scholars.
