Embracing diversity - An open conversation about dance on Steemit

in Dance and music showlast year

Dear Steemians

I've recently stumbled upon a topic within the Steemit community that has left me deeply perplexed and concerned. It has come to my attention that there are communities on this platform that do not accept or curate posts featuring dance videos. This revelation raises critical questions about the principles of inclusion and diversity that should be at the core of any creative space.

Dance, as an art form, embodies the essence of human expression. It transcends boundaries, tells stories, and fosters connections between people from diverse backgrounds. To deny this form of expression a place on Steemit seems not only regressive but also contrary to the platform's ethos, which promotes a rich tapestry of creativity.

I find myself struggling to comprehend how curators, who are essentially the gatekeepers of content, can be so obtuse as to overlook the immense value that dance videos bring to the creative landscape. Each dance carries a unique narrative, reflecting the culture, emotions, and creativity of the artists involved. By dismissing these expressions, we are missing out on an opportunity to celebrate the human experience in one of its most beautiful forms.

Rather than advocating for shame or exposure, I propose an open conversation. If you are a member of a community that does not curate dance videos, I invite you to share your reasons here. Let us engage in a dialogue where we can learn from one another and bridge the gap between our perspectives. Perhaps some misconceptions or concerns can be addressed, leading to a more inclusive environment for all forms of creative expression.

It's essential for us, as a community, to embrace the diversity of talents that Steemit has to offer fully. By fostering an environment where artists are encouraged to share their unique gifts, we not only enrich the platform but also contribute to a global celebration of creativity.

So, if you are one of those communities, I urge you to join this conversation. Let us work together to ensure that Steemit remains a welcoming space for artists of all kinds, where every voice is heard, and every form of expression is respected and appreciated.

N.B. This post encourages open dialogue and understanding within the community and does not seek to target or shame any specific individuals or groups.
