But the consensus--even among those who advocate freedom--is that dance need not be even mentioned as a human right. (Dance is so unimportant, you know, as a "freedom.") I wonder: Do oppressive governments FIRST fear the freedom of dance or of speech? If the world was paying attention, swing dance and jazz were the first to feel the strangle hold of Nazism before larger "freedoms of movement" felt it. The Taliban were prohibiting dance far before the general public in the West had ever heard the word "Taliban."
