Atlanta Chinese Dance Company (ACDC) shares a rarely told story about Chinese Americans growing up in the South through an original production "Ribbon Dance of Empowerment: Chinese Dance through the Eyes of an American." Intertwining Chinese dance with personal storytelling by and about some of the nearly 100 dancers, the production celebrates the role the art form has played in their search for identity, belonging, and self-acceptance as Chinese Americans in the South. Based on the personal journey of ACDC Co-Artistic Director Kerry Lee, "Ribbon Dance of Empowerment" culminates in an original mini dance drama that tells a story of a shy little American born Chinese girl who does not know where she belongs in the black/white binary of the American South. As she performs the Chinese ribbon dance hundreds of times throughout her life, she is empowered to be confident in her own skin as a Chinese American.
