The documentary film, Uprooted: The Journey of Jazz Dance, explores the roots and branches of jazz dance, celebrates its history, lineage and future and interrogates and reveals who has been made visible and invisible in the study of this form. The film addresses such topics as appropriation, racism, socialism and sexism. SSU is honored to host guest artist, dancer, educator Yusha-Marie Sorzano on Wednesday, February 22. She will teach a Camille Brown influenced jazz master class in the Dance Program and will lead a lecture discussion on the film Uprooted to the campus community!
