I had a great “dance nerd” chat with two of my favorite dance nerds, Brian Polite of Afro Mosaic Soul and Byron Cox of The House Dance Project. These brothas are people I would talk to about dance, black culture, and its evolution into the wee hours of the night after dancing all night in the NYC house clubs. We talk about the black experience in street dance and black culture being capitalized and commodity. We offer critiques, observations and some solutions. This is the first of many talks and I welcome them back on in the future. My Friends Are Fresh featuring Brian Polite and Byron Cox.
