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. 606 $aDancers$zGreat Britain$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xRace relations 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aafrican 610 $aballets 610 $acaribbean 610 $acompany 610 $acontemporary 610 $adancer 610 $ales 610 $alondon 610 $aphoenix 610 $atheatre 615 0$aDancers$xHistory. 676 $a793.31941 676 $a793.308996041 700 $aAdair$b Christy$4auth$0543953 702 $aAdair$b Christy 702 $aBurt$b Ramsay$f1953- 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910831882403321 996 $aBritish dance$94129909 997 $aUNINA
