Kahithe Kiiru is an anthropologist, choreographer, researcher, educator, and, of course, dancer. We discuss the uncomfortable binary created between traditional and contemporary dance in Africa as well as some of the dynamics at play in the dance sector in Kenya. This is the second part of the conversation.

Be sure to listen to part 1 to hear how Kahithe came to be a scholar of dance.
