A propos
Amongst many things, the decolonial call to arms asks us to engage in open-ended and multi-dimensional investigations of identity and culture. We are called to investigate alternatives to the Western empire's supremacist worldviews, mono-culture and fixed psycho-social identities.
Olave invites the Beursschouwburg audience to join her in conversations with researchers and grassroots organisers that offer insight into the ways in which Africans - in Brussels and on the continent - continue to innovate, reformulate, revive and/or engage with tradition, identity and culture.
