Personal Opinion
Asadata Dafora has become a person who is meaningful to me for many reasons. The way he felt about African dance and culture, and how bad he wanted recognition and study for it by others, really showed his love for these people and their traditions. He wanted to educate others and take this culture to a serious level, rather than it being playful and fun to look at. I was very inspired by the drive he had to show the world African dance, during a time where modern dance was mainly focused on European dance. People out there in the world look past talent, and you will always have your disbelievers, but Dafora had a voice and motivational drive like no other to show the world something they had never seen before.

First, I like your arrangement of this blog very much. It is clear to read. I can feel why Dafora meaning to you. He loved African dance, culture. He wanted to show the world what is the African dance, what is the African culture. When we talk about modern dance, we always come up with European dance. Dafora wanted to approve African dance with traditions.
