I just posted an ad on the internet that says:
Looking for Persian male or female Beat Boys, breakdancers, poppers, lockers, or Iranians who can do African or other ethnic dance for a new dance movement. Please email for more details and audition at: seamorg74million@gmail.com
Why not?
Youth should dance at the joy of existence rather than suffer for the simple right of existence. For my people, dance heals, and has the potential to not only be an expression of joy, but a vehicle through the pain. But, for some sick and twisted reason, it is one of the things the Islamic Republic has outlawed.
Here are links to my favorite “We are Heroes” performances, which to me are pure expressions of the joy of living and humanity’s creative potential. This group won the most recent episode of America’s Best Dance Crew on MTV. To you news and political junkies who happen to come to this post expecting hard news on the Iran-situation, please click on these links without any guilt. Many of us Iranians who stand for freedom are standing for the right to experience the creative freedom these young women are experiencing:
