Sheboygan African American Youth for Change Alliance |
The Mystical World of Roald Dahl |
Kaniya Crump, Class of 2017, created the Sheboygan African American Youth for Change Alliance as part of her IDEAS Project Block project. "Black youth need a way to learn, solve, and express their opinions and beliefs on the issues that involve them. Too many times these youth are caught in one of two extremes: Inactive or overly aggressive. So, how can the black community make a group to help educate and get black youth positively involved in the social and racial issues that involve them?"

Diane Jones, Class of 2019, selected the works of Roald Dahl to explore how narrative patterns and themes in literature can be transformed into dance. Dahl’s books were a childhood favorite of Diane’s and are recognizable by many.
The books she re-read for use in her project included James and the Giant Peach, Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, and The BFG. She decided to utilize a stricter interpretation of the stories to essentially retell parts of each story through dance. |
