Dancing as Political Healing

Hennessy will share ideas and stories that circle around the potential for experimental dance and improvisation practices to contribute to political healing.  If the harm or trauma is political (structural, legal, normative), should the healing be entirely personal? Jewish anarchist Gustav Landauer (1870-1919) meets Black lesbian feminist Audre Lorde (1934-1992) in a Fake Healing clinic at Forum Dança in 2025. What is happening? What is possible?

 

Organização: Forum Dança e Associação Parasita

 

The lecture will be conducted in English.
