Wednesday Afternoon Diversion: Dancehall Dancing is Big

By Kevin Robinson in Arts & Entertainment on Feb 15, 2012 9:00PM

Today we bring you back to the shores of Lake Michigan, to a little town we know as Chicago. At one point this City by the Lake had more Polish speakers in it than any other city besides Krakow. Should it come as a surprise then, that young Polish immigrants bring with them their hopes and dreams, their goals and aspirations, to our shores? Meet Ania Schreiber, a Chicagoan by way of Poland, a dancer who, like so many of us, has dreams of her own, possibly that one day, she might be a dancehall queen. And as you can see, she's got the moves.
