Before you go thinking of the 2010 collaborative album between Nas and Damian Marley, let me just say that this event has nothing to do with that best-selling release. It does, however, touch on African dance and its vast contributions to other cultures worldwide. Charlotte-based dance troupe Oneaka Dance Company has organized a special show featuring contemporary music, dance and fashion, that reveals the influence of Africa on American, Brazilian, Caribbean and Indian expression.
