N. K. Condua has a broad, beaming smile across their bearded face. In this still from a web camera, they sit in a beige room on a brown couch wearing a shirt of African design, blue with pink.

N.K. Condua is an artist and educator and Head Coach of the Ebony Flame Dancers, an all Black dance team for young women in Georgia. In addition to providing formal training on technique, style, and choreography, Condua’s teaching practice also focuses on cultivating team building skills and fostering high scholastic achievement. Having trained at the Atlanta Ballet, Condua noticed a lack of representation of Black artists. In this exchange, Condua and host Jazmine Freeman will discuss the importance of access in art and authenticity of expression, particularly as it intersects questions or racial and gender justice.
