Step Afrika

Last Thursday we went to a dance program called Step Afrika.  They do a kind of dance called step dancing. It was invented by African American college students around the 1920s.  They did it in fraternities and sororities.  They use their hands and feet as percussion instruments while dancing and sometimes incorporate chanting and singing.
