Seeing a ton of TikTok choreo being made for 'SWEET ☆ HONEY ☆ BUCKIIN'
I feel compelled to highlight the documentary “When the beat drops” by Jamal Sims. It explores the black & gay history of the dance style known as “bucking.”
The Symposium Planning Team would love for you to join them at LES 2023!

Today's gonna be fun.
A good R&B interlude is a sonic appetizer. It sets a tone, but also makes us wish it was a whole song.
For Day 8 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge, share a favorite R&B interlude.
Live recordings are an art. Sometimes, artists change a song for live performance but lose something that you loved in the original. But sometimes the elevate it and improve on it.
For Day 6 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge, share a favorite live version of a song.
We are thrilled to be hosting a symposium exploring, honoring, and celebrating the legacy of Melvin Van Peebles, @OhioWesleyan class of ‘53. Panelists have come from across the country and around the world. Special thanks to keynote speaker and symposium adviser Wil Haygood.
This playlist however is a compilation of #southernhiphop (and its roots) that resonated with students at the end of the semester. It’s a vast improvement from the beginning of the course when many had little to no conception of southern hip hop. https://t.co/3yBHPqezQf
Proud of my students final course playlist. I teach a Black Queer South course & a major subtext of the course is southern hip hop. At the beginning of the course I survey students about their southern #hiphop knowledge and as you can imagine it is often lacking & limited.
This spring (March 31-April 1, 2023) we are hosting our first Melvin Van Peebles Symposium at Ohio Wesleyan University, his alma mater. We are accepting Symposium proposals now—scholars, artists, activists, filmmakers, enthusiasts, please apply: https://t.co/1lqe5kpas8
