A mini dance series created by a
Brooklyn native is up for a big award.
"The Hood Dorothy" is
nominated for a Webby award, which honors excellence on the internet.
"It is an ode
to Black excellence and entertainment,"
says producer Nayilah Antoine. "So the first episode I did a tribute to
the Harlem Renaissance and in the second episode I did a tribute to The Wiz
Emerald City. And I am so excited just to see where my project is going and
just to be acknowledge by the Webbys."
The winners will
be announced later this month.
Antoine says she
is working on season two.
