I can understand the meaning of racial justice. I can use hip hop to show feelings and ideas. I can choreograph a piece with my classmates.

In this residency, students will explore racial justice-themed poems and bring them to life through hip hop dance with Dimensional Dancer and Hartford resident Savana Jones and Dimensional Dance director Ruth Lewis. The students will learn to choreograph and to create their own pieces. By the third day the students will work collaboratively creating movement together in small groups. The movement pieces will be inspired by the writings of Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, Sandra Maria Esteves, or racial justice reading your class is using. The first day we work together creating movement together with the poem, often Still I Rise by Maya Angelou. The second day the students will collaborative work in duets. The third day the students will create their own pieces about their dimension of hope for themselves and their community.
