Title: This is how we flow
Description: "This is How We Flow" explores the meaning, motif, and theme of rhythm in black cultures throughout the United States and Africa. In ten essays the volumes contributors illustrate how rhythm is the foundation of all African expression - from music and dance to the visual arts, architecture, theater, literature, and film. They suggest, by example, that an African aesthetic does indeed exist, an aesthetic that revolves around the motif of rhythm.
