It’s voguing, a dance form created for and by people of color within the LGBTQ community in New York City in the 1980s. Now, dancers like Hoedy Saad are continuing the tradition in the Middle East. In the face of adversity, he continues to dance, building a vogue scene in Lebanon that gives everyone the space to feel free. SUBSCRIBE This story is a part of our Human Condition series.
