Decolonization that centers indigenous peoples and works to undo legacies of oppression, violence, and marginalization. Decolonization is not a catch-all term for things we seek to improve in our culture and communities.
Join this reading group curated by the Artists of Color Council (AoCC) at Movement Research (Core members: Megan Curet, Rebecca Gual and Shawn Rawls. Coordinator: Jelani Taylor). Participants will have the opportunity to read excerpts from “Decolonization is not a Metaphor” (E. Tuck & K.W. Yang, 2012) and discuss their use cases of, and engagements with “Decolonization”.
As part of this reading group AoCC Coordinator, Jelani Taylor, will lead participants through intervals of reading and discussion. Participants will be given printed copies of excerpts and the full article will also be shared via a QR code.
