The Sister Project: A Global Decolonial Collaboration of Scholars, Activists, Researchers, Educators, and Community Experts
Tue, April 21, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Virtual RoomSession Type: Roundtable Session
Abstract
The Sister Project is a collective of scholars, activists, community experts, and global citizens that seek to participate in radical action with the goal of creating change to promote social justice. Our “sisters” view their work to be a decolonial project with goals of dismantling the matrices of domination (Collins, 2009) that influence our lived experiences. This workshop highlights how friendships can spark global phenomenon through collaborations, critical dialogue, and the loving creation of “sister” bonds. These interactive workshops include activities centering the experiences of Malagsy, Puerto Rican, Indonesian, Hispanic and Native American women. We share our experiences and research with the hope of fostering a humanizing world that allows for the legitimate right to exist for all human persons.
