New Meanings:
Afro-descendant Percussion Practices
This year marks the 10th anniversary of Stalwart Originality: New Tradi-
tions in Black Performance. Created by Annemarie Bean and Sandra
Burton, Stalwart was developed to nurture artistic and academic inter-
est in expressions informed by African traditions. Integrating practice
and theory, Stalwart provides a context to explore these traditions, as
well as new forms of music, dance, media, theater, literature and mul-
tidisciplinary art. This year, Arif Smith, Assistant Director of the Multi-
cultural Center and Berta Jottar, Assistant Professor of Latina/o Stud-
ies, are curating New Meanings: Afro-descendant Percussion Practices,
a symposium that will network percussion practices from West Africa,
