SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:"Talk: \"Ancestral Futures: Creating an Aesthetics of Resistance Through Indigenous Performance\" by Monique Mojica (CAS MillerComm)\r"
DESCRIPTION:"\rGeorge A. Miller (GAM) Visiting Artist Monique Mojica (Guna and Rappahannock) and University of Illinois Professor of Anthropology Brenda Farnell’s recent book, Chocolate Woman Dreams the Milky Way: Mapping Indigenous Embodied Performance (2023) chronicles a story of collaborative embodied exploration, land, and archival research mobilized to serve an Indigenous dramaturgy. What emerges is an intersection of Indigenous literacies grounded in body, land, story, and language. Blurring the lines between artist and scholar they ask, How do we create an Indigenous theater that moves beyond the “victim narrative” while embracing an aesthetics of resistance?\r\rDownload Event Flyer (PDF)\r\rEvent Details\rHosted by: Department of Anthropology and Spurlock Museum\r\rIn conjunction with: American Indian Studies Program, Center for Global Studies, Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, Department of Communication, Department of Comparative & World Literature, Department of Dance, Department of Gender & Women's Studies, Department of History, Department of Latina/Latino Studies, Department of Sociology, Department of Theatre, Humanities Research Institute, Krannert Art Museum, Native American House, School of Art + Design, University Housing, Women & Gender in Global Perspectives Program\r\rAbout the Speakers\r\rMonique Mojica (external link)\rGeorge A.
