chosen: In American society, dance has long been viewed as a vehicle for white cultural assimilation and a tool for preserving white, upper-class values. In the past, mainstream dance genres such as tap and ballroom dancing were seen as forms of affluent entertainment. In addition, some conservative social commentators have asserted that certain forms of street dancing – such as hip-hop and breakdancing – are detrimental to the development of young black people, by promoting anti-social behaviour and materialism. However, over the past few decades, a more progressive attitude towards dance has slowly become more established among mainstream American culture. Nowadays, different dance styles like Latin, hip-hop, and contemporary are becoming increasingly popular as viable art forms, with their own unique artistic messages to deliver. Moreover, more opportunities than ever before are being made available for people from all backgrounds to pursue professional careers in the performing arts.
