The second purpose of the program was to screen “Let’s Get to Work!,” a short film on Steppin produced at Emory’s Center for Digital Scholarship (ECDS), which you can watch below. As someone who has had a personal and professional interest in Steppin ever since I was introduced to the subculture while I was a graduate student at Emory nearly a decade ago, I have always believed that the story of this dance form and its culture would best be told via a visual medium, especially because of the strong emphasis on self-expression and fashion in the subculture. When I was finally presented with the opportunity to work with ECDS on the video on Steppers in Atlanta, I felt the incredible weight of choice and an overwhelming sense of responsibility to choose wisely in how I represented this practice and community. In particular, I knew my choices about who to ask to participate in the piece would ultimately dictate whether those in the subculture saw it as legitimate.
