Hmm. Black folks all over the world possess a sensual rhythm that responds intuitively to music. But see, one of my favorite things is watching South Africans dancing. It’s hard to explain but they have perfected this expression of carefree black joy. https://twitter.com/teamsalut/status/1274311765195739137

It’s in the wide faced grins as their bodies undulate to the music, it’s in the way you can never quite tell what their legs are going to do next.

Nigerians for example dance something fierce, we are furrowed brows and pointed gazes. But South Africans seem to sway and move

With the wind in a way that seems reflexive and effortless.

It’s the way they look upwards, tongue out, with an air of joyful defiance.

Inject this into my veins very quickly.

I so much love it.
