passage 2
P1
One of the more striking developments in modern North American dance was African American choreographer Katherine Dunham's introduction of a technique known as dance-isolation, in which one part of the body moves in one rhythm while other parts are kept stationary or are moved in different rhythms. ███ █████████████ ██ ████ █████████ ████ █████ ████████ ███ ████████ ████████████ ██ ██████████ ███████ ████████ ███████ █████ ██ ███ █████████ ████ ████ ████ █████████ ██ ███████████ ██████ ██ ███████ ████████ ██████████ ███ ██████████████ █████████ ███
Intro topic ·
Katherine Dunham brought dance-isolation technique to North American choreography
Dance-isolation = one part of body moves to rhythm while other parts stay still or move to a different rhythm. Variations of this move were part of African, Caribbean, and Pacific-island cultures.
Reason for Dunham's success ·
Training in both anthropological research and choreographer

Historical context ·
Dance was neglected as area of social research
Social scientists tended to focus on stuff they thought was more scientifically rigorous. Also, social scientists didn't have as much training in dance as Dunham; dance experts didn't have her training in social science research.

Dunham's dance research ·
Studied Caribbean dance forms and origins in African culture
Dunham's radical approach ·
Dunham participated in dances herself
Social scientists advised her not to do this, because they assumed (wrongly) that science must be done from position of detachment. By participating in dances herself, Dunham understood the techniques well enough to teach them to others.
