Williams and three Moving Spirits dancers were filmed over the summer, performing on location in Charlotte at the Big Rock Nature Preserve and by the Catawba River and McAlpine Creek.

Her book, <em>Giving Life to Movement: The Silvestre Dance Technique<\/em>, was published by McFarland in Spring 2021. Williams also studies the spiritual dances of the African diaspora and recently received a Cultural Visions Grant from the Arts &amp; Science Council to support her research on ring shout traditions. <a href=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/spotlights\/tamara-williams\">Learn more about her in this Spotlight<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Black@Intersection<\/em> is on view at SECCA through April 7, 2022.
