INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Elizabeth Wislar, Dede Ayite, & Clint Ramos discuss decolonizing the costume imagination.
Decolonization is the active resistance against colonial powers. It is a shifting of political, economic, educational, cultural, and psychic independence and power to a nation’s own indigenous peoples. Decolonizing art requires an unlearning of white supremacy; a de-centering of Eurocentric ideals of art, aesthetic, and design; and the dismantling of institutions that are steeped in colonization, including capitalism and white American theatre.
