Given the long weekend to honor Marting Luther King Jr's honorable life's work, I have reserved the Carrboro Century Center for a Hoop Jam. As a firm believer in civil disobedience and working for social justice, I would like to dance with others in honor of those who have fought against all odds for human rights. Unfortunately, there are still many battles ahead for individuals around the world.
Let us dance in honor of those who have walked difficult but righteous paths before us; those who currently strive to make the world a more hospitable place; and for those who will carry on this tradition and speak out for those whose voices might otherwise be unheard . Let us dance in gratitude for the beauty that exists all around us and in prayer for a world that is more respectful of all the miracles of life.

HOOP CRAFT
Hoop crafting session at Julia's new home during the afternoon prior to jam. If you are lookin' to craft a new hoop or refurbish an old one, come on out. Cost dependent upon materials used. More details to follow in hoopdance tribe (tribes.tribe.net/hoopdance) and by event invitation. You are welcome to get dressed at my place and I would eagerly open my closet for those looking to play dress up;-)
