Modern Moves: Dancing Race during the Ragtime and Jazz Eras
Robinson, Danielle (Assistant Professor of Dance Studies, Assistant Professor of Dance Studies, York University, Toronto, CA)

It focuses on Manhattan, a Black Atlantic capital into which diverse people and dances flowed and intermingled, and out of which new dances were marketed globally.
