2019/2020 Season Program Announcements


Recommended Posts

Just curious, we have

  • Alina skating to Cleopatra (Egypt)
  • Zhenya skating to Geisha (Jpn) 
  • Rika skating to Intl Angel of Peace (India?) 
  • Shoma skating to Great Spirit (Native American?) 

What else? Is it just me or is this the year of cultural switcharoos lol.

 

I've already seen angry comments about the problematic portrayal of Geishas in the original MoaG (which I can understand, and for real, the author was being an axxhole for blatantly disrespecting the confidentiality and hurting the ex-Geisha he interviewed to the extent she wanted to commit suicide), Indians being offended by the use of Namaste (prayer hand gestures) in Rika's program, long rants about oppression of Native Americans, and I'd imagine Alina's program wasn't that well received as well?
