The Dancers Amplified PodcastEp 7 Dancers Amplified Podcast Lauren FlowerIn this episode, I speak with a fellow Dancers Amplified member, Lauren Flower. We talk about how the dance world is slowly (a bit too slowly) making space for LGBTQIA+ dancers, particularly in ballet. We also discuss the transition they went through from company dancer to teacher/choreographer and how that impacted their life as a dancer. Also how the incorporation of activism within the art of choreographing contributes to the ongoing work of diversification for marginalized dancers. I hope you all enjoy our encounter.

We speak about the recent violent events that have occurred as a result of hate. Since the pandemic, Asian people have received life-threatening attacks on the streets by people that feel that they can blame the pandemic on every Asian person they come across. We also speak about sexualization/fetishization towards Asian women, sex work, colorism, homelessness, racial slurs, and allyship. We also delve deep into the model minority trope.
