Module 1: The March of History
Saturday Dialogues: Building the Cultural Front
Date & Time: Saturday, July 13, 1-3PM EST
Description:
“Art must teach people, in the most vivid and imaginative ways possible, to take control over their own experience and observations [and] how to link these with the struggle for liberation and a just society free of race, class, and exploitation’” – Dikobe wa Mogale
Across the world, revolutionary movements have understood art and culture as not only a powerful weapon for revolution, but central to social and economic transformation. How do we understand culture today as a key terrain to wage political struggle, and how can we build towards a socialist and internationalist culture.
Facilitator: Hannah Priscilla Craig, Director of Art, Culture and Communication at The People’s Forum, and Niki Franco, cultural worker and podcaster
