News Articles

and this citation in JSTOR:
About That Swing: "Sleaze" Dancing and Community Norms at River Falls Lodge, by Paul Jordan-Smith
in Western Folklore, Vol. 60, No. 2/3, Communities of Practice: Traditional Music and Dance (Spring - Summer, 2001), pp. 183-202

I like your picture, why did you pick swing dancing instead of...that?
Haha, I'm with Kayvan.
