Sherrie Silver What You Need to Know

Sherrie Silver What You Need to Know Ever since Childish Gambino (a.k.a. Donald Glover) dropped a surprise video for his song This Is America on May 6th, the world wide web has been in a frenzy. Since then, its been impossible not to find a think piece or This Is America has largely been one of labelling Gambino a genius, the internet is just now giving Sherrie Silver, the woman responsible for the videos choreography, her well-deserved recognition.Much like art imitating life, a woman (of color, no less)is the brains behind dance moves that were both stunning and grotesque, yet Gambino has received all of the applause. Until now. Without Silver a the 23-year-old, Rwandan-born dancer, actress, creative, and philanthropist, who was previously known for her viral dance videoson Instagram and YouTube Gambinos video wouldnt contain its striking symbolism, brought to life by moves like South Africas Gwara Gwara dance.In an interview with Forbes, when asked about her mission to educate the world about African culture, Silver said, I stand for taking Africa to the world and taking the world to Africa... I think were really interesting, and this is ur time to shine. She went on to say that I want you, for example, to watch Donalds video and see the kids and me dancing in it, and I want you to join, and I want you to feel like these kids just landed from Africa.Had so much fun featuring in and choreographing This Is America, This is for Africa Thank you childishgambino - Full video out now S/O muraihiro wolfrothstein
