Inspired by the voices of their ancestors, Kulu Mele African Dance & Drum Ensemble preserves and presents traditional dance and music of Africa and the African diaspora.
This performance will include live dance and drum artistry with origins in Cuba and West Africa. This program will also feature a solo dance performance created by BMC Student Ayantae Cunningham as a part of the 360° course cluster Paradigms of Revival: Black Liberatory Education, Embodiment, and the Arts led by professors Lela Aisha Jones, Monique Scott, and Chanelle Wilson.
The event is presented and supported by the Performing Arts Series, the Dance Program, Africana Studies, and Latin American, Iberian, and Latina/o Studies (LAILS).
