Into Practice: What comes next in our antiracist work?
As part of Malmö Dance Week, Work in Progress welcomes Sophia Wekesa for a workshop that invites us to look at how antiracism can move from theory into practice.
We will explore 15 characteristics of white supremacy and how they show up in dance and dance communities, reflect on our own learned behaviours, and consider our individual roles within collective antiracist work.
In recent years, we have laid important groundwork through studying and reflecting on antiracist theory.
This workshop asks: What do we do now?
