Trailer- Art for the many and not the few, oh wait?

1m · Tracing Realities · 29 Sep 22:23

While listening to lived experiences is necessary to understand the consequences of systemic racism, talking about them can also relieve trauma for those who are already grappling with inequalities. What can we do, regardless of our skin color, to avoid reproducing some unfair structures at the origin of racism?

In this first season, we explore how inequity in the arts manifests through how we use language in the sector and how representation isn't approached with the right mentality. Because language is a very powerful tool for how we produce, consume and understand the world around us - and we shouldn’t underestimate the way it can influence mass mentality.

Join me, in having conversations with founders of Mother Tongues and the Museum of Half Truths: two grassroot projects that prioritise audiences and work towards a more diverse art sector.
