Re: [Callers] Politically Correct?

Louise has hit the nail on the head: "I’d love everyone to dance for the pure joy of it, but the idea that we can get “back” to that place, rather than move forward to it, is a myth." Me too (yup), and there is no easy path to get there. We must keep talking - just like in the broader world of politics. Talking does/can get frustrating and circular, but it also opens minds and keeps people thinking about how to be together better. Meanwhile, together let's forge a path - maybe of many sortof parallel lanes - to move forward to dancing in joy.

I have a friend who danced for the pure joy of it until he got sick of being asked why a black man wanted to contra dance. I dance with more, purer joy now that fewer men “offer” to split me up from my girlfriend when we join a line together. I’d love everyone to dance for the pure joy of it, but the idea that we can get “back” to that place, rather than move forward to it, is a myth.
