About this listen
“Recovered” lawyer, archivist, choreographer, and dancer, Germaine Ingram is a cultural force in Philadelphia. Germaine was involved with ODUNDE’s Hucklebuck to Hip Hop African American Social Dance project in the 1990s, a critical reference for The Re-Emancipation of Social Dance.
Now in her seventies, Germaine takes listeners through the lineage of social dance in Philadelphia, recounts her childhood run-in with celebrity preacher of the 1930s to 50s Daddy Grace, and discusses what is required to lay the groundwork for younger artists and culture bearers. Listen in.
This podcast is produced by Dr. Bruce Campbell Jr. with V. Shayne Frederick, Nia Benjamin and Yolanda Wisher for Journey Arts. For more information about the podcast and project, visit https://reemancipatedance.org/.
