Hoop dancers from Lightning Boy Foundation return to the Plaza “This [pandemic] has been harder for our kids than I’ve ever seen or experienced,” Felicia Rosacker-Rivera, director of the Lightning Boy Foundation, tells SFR. “We had to do Zoom classes with most kids the past year, and the kids always have Zoom fatigue after school. A lot of this past year has had to be dancers doing their own thing and keeping us updated.” Despite the difficulties, including how Indigenous communities have been hit disproportionately hard by COVID-19, the organization’s upcoming performances on the Plaza and elsewhere herald a positive point for the youth dancers—albeit a masked and socially distant one.
