The September gathering focuses upon social exclusion as one of the three central tenets in the making of settler colonial nations. We will explore the emergence of Eurocentric narratives that justify colonial occupation. In particular, taxonomy of racial hierarchies, practices of eugenics, scientific racism have served to codify social fictions into material realities of white settler supremacy.

FCCW NEWS
Yves B. Golden’s The Burden
We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our latest Artist In Residence exhibit this fall — a collection of sculptural works and a series of programs by Yves B. Golden, curated by Seta Morton. The Burden draws it’s title from a negro spiritual “Down by the Riverside,” an apt title for Golden, whose body of work both attends and surrenders to the fluidity of water and, with this exhibition, demands demilitarization. Within the traditions of Black feminist pedagogy as transformative praxis, The Burden aims to soften our senses while sharpening our teeth and tongues around the shape of disarmament.
