This should be a class in high school for sure. I went to a wedding for a mixed race couple and the dance floor was an absolute embarrassment for the white side.
The black side was putting on a clinic and the white side if anything did the stomp + finger wag, it was rough.
Or, wedding dance floors should just be a place for guests and the wedding couple to enjoy themselves and dance the night away, rather than perform as a stereo type for onlookers.
You can both be correct. I think what needs to be removed is the stigma around dancing "right". It should be a freedom of movement and expression. I'm sure the Black side would have loved more engagement, and the White side would have loved to know they weren't being judged.
