186. Zuce Morales: What is funk?

Dana Wilson hosts Zuce Morales this week on the Words That Move Me Podcast! Zuce (a Locker, Whacker, and Popper and beyond) talks about the meaning of funk and what it was like to win her first Red Bull Dance Your Style battle. We also dig into what it means to be an immigrant woman leading the street dance community in Los Angeles. Get ready for the funk, the whole funk, and nothing but the funk.
