On Tuesday, the Los Angeles City Council presented Allen with a certificate of recognition for her outstanding career achievements and service to L.A.Whether she's on your TV screen or working in a dance studio, Debbie Allen is unforgettable.
"It just means a lot because it is very important to be in a community where you feel not just loved but supported and respected," said Allen. "That's what we got today from the city council, which tells us that we are doing the right things, and we just got to do more." "When you think about Juneteenth, that is what happened, we danced," Hutt said. "Earlier, you saw the children performing and they did have that freedom of movement. That is a part of something coming from within, and is the right person to really dedicate this day to."
