🎤🤝👟 PASS THE MIC: Codes, Cultures & Ways of Being // Thur. 10/8 @ 7pm 👟🤝🎤
-A Community Town Hall-
Every groove, every style, and every rule we follow in the circle was handed to us by somebody who carried it before we got here. As our scenes grow and our eyes turn toward the present and the future, it's worth pausing together to talk about where each of our cultures comes from and the principles that made us who we are. Those principles are more than history. They are ways of being, and when we understand them, they keep us aligned with our own traditions, with each other, and with the people who opened the door for us.
Pass the Mic brings crew leaders and members from across the DMV's many dance communities into that conversation. This isn't a battle and it isn't a showcase. It's a real dialogue about history, community, respect, and identity, where each culture can speak for itself, and where we can talk honestly about what's been passed down, what's being challenged, and what's being reinvented.
