Sat Oct 10th, 2020 - 02:30PM


What:
DEL Panel: What Has Dance Taught Us About Race? Experiences, Challenges, And Opportunities For Dialogue
 
Who: 
Online Class with Ann Biddle, MA, Frederick Curry, MA and with distinguished guests Dian Dong, Dr. Martha Eddy, Eduardo Vilaro and Jawole Willa Jo Zollar
 

When: 
Saturday, October 10 at 2-5:30pm ET
 

Registration Link:

Why: 
Why do we need to talk about race in dance education?
 

Because the only way to decolonize the curriculum is to re-assess how we're teaching and what we're teaching. The dance education world needs to ask all of the same questions that dance presenters and dance companies are asking right now.
 

Dance educators must add culturally relevant teaching and critical dance pedagogy to their educational toolkit if we are to empower all dancers with stronger social justice skills and address the many inequities within the larger dance world. 
 

Be Part of the Discussion: 

  1. Register. And bring your colleagues! 
 

In order to make this workshop as accessible as possible, and to encourage entire college departments and other institutions to sign up multiple registrants, we are offering a registration fee of only $20 per person. We hope many of you can use professional development funding to attend.
 
  1. Please post about the DEL Panel on social media and/or share via email to your friends, fans and followers.

Please let us know if you have any questions. 
 
Thank you for joining us and helping us spread the word! 
 

Warm wishes,
Jody Gottfried Arnhold & everyone at DEL
