Isadora was certainly a revolutionary, and I've been privileged to study under her contemporaries. Duncan dance has opened my world in many ways, and reading this, I very much appreciate many of her ideas - but her racism is despicable. Yes, this was written before desegregation, but for such a feminist, "modern" thinker, I'm still shocked at her elitism (really, Greek art is the only art that inspires true beauty and attunement to nature? African dance is primal and animalistic? UGH).
