Decolonizing the Black Male Body, Self, and Masculinities Through Dance
Led by Dr. Carl Paris
This workshop draws on a combination of Franz Fanon’s ideas about decolonizing the body and participants’ ideas about dancing-self through contexts of masculinity. Participants will use movement improvisation, text, and other creative strategies to reflect on issues that concern them as black male dancing artists. This exploration culminates with presentations and dialogue about the ideas that emerge.
MISSION

DEEPEN YOUR INTER-GROOVE & building communities. If you identify as Black and Male, this is a SAFE SPACE for you. We welcome all ages, abilities, and male fluidity.
