Restless Endeavors: Diasporic Cultural Production
United Kingdom, Germany, France
My project arises in a political moment marked by the resurgence of nationalist, exclusionary rhetoric and policies around the world. How do we engage with narratives that offer a more expansive and ethical conception of identity? Diasporic creatives offer possibilities of such conceptions vis-a-vis their restlessness with the nation-state. My goal is to engage these communities to learn how.
