RSJI Presentation by Dr. Grace Player
734-764-8416
Schorling Auditorium (Room 1202)
This talk will invite the audience to consider the ways that Girls and Femmes of Color (GFOC) freedom dream educational worlds through artistic practices, including art-making and curation.
Through the exploration of a year-long project with a curatorial board of 5 GFOC, this talk will explore the ways that GFOC use curatorial praxis and the arts to 1) conceptualize education justice, and 2) create radical pedagogical artspaces that center GFOC learning, teaching, and creative practices. In doing so, this presentation understands GFOC as sophisticated teachers, learners, creators, and theorists of educational justice and offers suggestions for how educators might collaborate with GFOC to dream of and construct more just educational worlds.
