A $6 million offer by a Guyanese racist



 There were dance pieces that were not exclusively Indian in origin and non-Indians specializing in Indian classical dance performed. Two notable inclusions were Andre Subryan and Philip McClintock, the latter benefitting from a scholarship from the Indian government.

In fact in the 70s he was regarded as one of the best male dancers of kathak.  And this at a time when few non Indians had the vaguest interest in any aspect of Indo culture, aside from eating dhal puri and curried dishes.
