Join us on Tuesday, October 25th, 11 AM - 1 PM at the Barnett Center Collaboratory (141 Sullivant Hall) for a puppet-making workshop on epistemic justice, featuring Daniel Bryan, Executive Director of Pachaysana Institute.
This event counts toward the Diversity, Intercultural and Community Engagement (DICE) Certificate Program.
About the workshop
What knowledge does our world value? What does it mean “to know” something? In our formal education spaces, non-Western ways of thinking and being have been excluded, devalued, and invisiblized. This workshop asks us to collectively imagine what epistemic justice would look like in our lived realities. To do so, we will practice a puppet-making methodology developed between the Pachaysana Institute and the Andean community of Pintag in Ecuador.
This hands-on session will be followed by the Embodying "Unlearning": A theatre and social change workshop on Wednesday, October 26, 11 AM - 1 PM at the Barnett Center Collaboratory (141 Sullivant Hall).
