Ironically, Kendra does not have a new voice at all, or should I say, “ain’t nuthin’ new about Kendra’s voice” (I had to do it). Vocally, I detect soulful cues from the likes of Shirley Brown, Ruth Pointer, and even the great Phyllis Hyman.

Dunham received her bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees in anthropology from the University of Chicago and later did extensive anthropological study, particularly in the Caribbean. She began performing in 1931 in Chicago and then worked for the New York Labor Stage, where she composed dances for The Emperor Jones, Pins and Needles, and Run, Li’l Chillun.

She's running an arts and culture program for kids in East St. Louis, Missouri, the Midwestern city known centrally for the failure of everything: public schools, politics, and people. Even the grass there can't grow right, notes a New York Times article on Dunham's project. "Summer heat bears down on a scrubby lawn" -- forget a park.

Searching the "Dance on Camera 2008-Film Society of Lincoln Center" site today I found a more thorough description,* but going into it I had no idea what to expect. It was fabulous.

One can always balance each trait evenly to make it difficult for anyone to point out anyone style to create a new style of mongrel music.

What the land gives and what our bodies know (both being full of deep knowledge). There is also how we make marks, how we mark our existence in this world.
