Soulstepping

African American step shows

by

  • 1 Want to read

"Stepping is a complex performance that melds folk traditions with popular culture and involves synchronized percussive movement, singing, speaking, chanting, and drama. Developed by African American fraternities and sororities, it is now practiced throughout the world.

Soulstepping is the first book to document the history of stepping, its roots in African American culture, and its transformation by churches, schools, and social groups into a powerful tool for instilling group identity and community involvement."--BOOK JACKET.
