About the event
This is a participatory workshop in which people will be invited to explore the ideologies and processes whereby people are ‘otherised’ in relation to colonialism and racism. Being labelled and treated as ‘other’ than the dominant group both justifies and reinforces white privilege and power.
The purpose of the workshop is to enable participants to articulate and deepen their own understanding of some of the mechanisms and effects of colonialism and racism in Aotearoa New Zealand. People will also be encouraged to develop proactive responses to addressing white power and privilege, and to work towards a rich diversity based on honesty, respect and action.
