Choreographer Luam Keflezgy On How To Overcome The Stigma Of Arts as a Career In African Families

"I choreographed the power of the women in my culture into a dance performed by the biggest force in music. It was my way of reconciling my departure of what my culture expected of me (medicine) with a path they didn't understand (dance). And I did it in a way that would make them proud and take ownership." - Luam Keflezgy
