Description: Animated is a community dance magazine, published by People Dancing. Written by dance artists and professionals, it reflects community dance culture in the UK and beyond. Animated encourages debate, dialogue and reflection on current issues and community dance practice. People Dancing has recently led and initiative to document and digitise all articles written by Black dance practitioners, which will be available as part of Serendipity's Living Archive. This roundtable discussion will delve into this collection which charts the journey of Black dance in the UK over three decades. Panellists include: Louise Katerega, Head of People Dancing; Rennae Wilson, dancer and educator, and Sharon Watson, Principal of Northern School of Contemporary Dance. This panel discussion is part of Serendipity's Unearthed: Forgotten Histories project, which seeks to recognise and celebrate Black British cultural heritage.
