Social Distance, But Make It Ballroom: Detroit Neighbors Dancing Goes Viral

A video of Detroiters ballrooming to “Better Love” by Luther Vandross while social distancing has garnered more than 20,000 likes on Twitter. Bria Renee never thought visiting her aunt and her neighbors would go viral on the internet.

Within 24 hours it has been shared by native Detroiters such as Jemele Hill and Dr. Michael Eric Dyson. Ballroom dancing is as endeared in Detroit as coney islands, Better-Made chips, and Dodge Chargers; especially in the Black community.

The Michigan Chronicle recently featured Renee profiling her virtual dating experience.
