International Workshop: Care, Repair and Intersectional Re-Imaginations with Janine Francois - Out of Many, One People Festival (LOATAD x DTA)


  • Library of Africa and the African Diaspora (LOATAD) PRFX+FF, Adenta Municipality Accra Ghana (map)

This 2-day workshop will explore storytelling as an intersectional tool to how we foreground invisible stories that have been erased due colonial practices. We will use our radical imagination to collectively play with new ways of culture-making and presenting by decentring dominant modes of curating that situate care and community co-production. This will enact speculative practices of world building and Black futurity to embody liberators care both interpersonally and collectively.

This workshop is open to all but with specific focus on curators, researchers, cultural workers,  knowledge producers/makers, archivists, and community activists.

Please bring:

  • An object/artefact that represents your personality /heritage/ cultural background

  • A piece of writing that inspires you, this can be your own writing or something written by others (1 page only)

  • Loose comfortable clothing as there will be some movement 

Out Of Many, One People Festival is a year-long celebration of transnational Black cultural activism inspired by the life and legacy of Ghanaian playwright and Pan-African cultural activist, Efua Sutherland (1924-1996).
