Dear BSC Dancers,
There is a lot happening in the world. Please note, due to covid, we have not yet been able to resume dancing. Please stay-tuned. But all dances have been cancelled. We’re getting closer to the day when we can dance again, but we’re not quite there yet, please be patient.
In the meantime, we hope you continue to educate yourself on racial injustice, systemic racism and the Lindy Hop and it’s place in history as well as is its origins as an African American dance. We recommend starting with this page from Black Lives Matter, and have linked some additional resources below.
Immediate and lasting change requires every single one of us taking conscious steps to demand accountability. Listen. Educate. Donate. Speak. Act. Join us in calling out racism and injustice and in taking steps towards a more equitable future for our Boston community and our wider world.
