“Recovered” lawyer, archivist, choreographer, and dancer, Germaine Ingram is a cultural force in Philadelphia. Germaine was involved with ODUNDE’s Hucklebuck to Hip Hop African American Social Dance project in the 1990s, a critical reference for The Re-Emancipation of Social Dance.
Now in her seventies, Germaine takes listeners through the lineage of social dance in Philadelphia, recounts her childhood run-in with celebrity preacher of the 1930s to 50s Daddy Grace, and discusses what is required to lay the groundwork for younger artists and culture bearers. Listen in.
