Jason Nious, artist in residence for the Museum of Dance, joins us to explore the social history of Stepping and Body Percussion and other folkloric dance forms of the African Diaspora, particularly of North America. He talks about his own journey, development, and creative process as he examines the roots and development of Stepping, and it's legacy for adding to the rich diversity and evolution of American dance.
