CQ UNBOUND: My Story about People of Color’s Contact Improvisation (POC CI) Jams and Parcon Resilience

I recently published an article in Contact Quarterly! It is about my story into dance and CI. Thank you mayfield brooks for inviting me to submit to CQ (congrats on joining their editorial board!) and for yours and Lisa Nelson's editing suggestions. And a special thanks to my wife, Perry, for helping me draw out my feelings around my experiences and what drove me. The link is here!

I am grateful for the depths of your research into yourself and the many cultures within cultures you experienced and then created, shining light into places where the darkness went unseen, by myself as well. In your writing the fearlessness of parkour and the intimacy of contact come through in a big integrated wave of truth and trust, and leave me feeling something very necessary that was lacking has been addressed.
