Deaf Nigerian dancers delight public, challenge expectations
  + stars: | 2023-08-16 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
[1/2] Members of Deaf Can Dance team pose after their performance at a dance concert in Ibadan, Nigeria August 6, 2023. Public performances by deaf artists are rare in Nigeria, where there is little provision for people with disabilities to access cultural and artistic activities. Otunuyi and others in the group credit James with helping them express rhythm and flow during rigorous training sessions. "Some may think it is just a waste of energy, a waste of time," Otunuyi signed. "We are trying to break the biases, the prejudices against deaf people," he said.
