Angela Davis and Gina Dent | Abolition Feminism: Dreaming a New Reality

Описание: In their keynote address, renowned scholar/activists Angela Davis and Gina Dent reflected on the urgent necessity of abolition as a practice and imaginative threshold of new social realities. Their groundbreaking recent book, Abolition. Feminism. Now. surfaces the often unrecognized genealogies of queer, anti-capitalist, internationalist, grassroots, and women-of-color-led feminist movements, struggles, and organizations that have helped to define abolition and feminism in the twenty-first century.

This keynote was brought to you by The Circle Project, a collective of artists, activists and formerly incarcerated women committed to creating provocative art that embodies new social realities. Their latest project, produced in collaboration with Vancouver artist Adad Hannah, is "What Fools These Mortals Be" a a retelling of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream as performed in a series of stunning tableau vivantes by 14 formerly incarcerated women.
