Unit(s): 4

Around the world, performing artists engage with complex issues to strengthen communities and promote change. Introduction to Performing Arts & Social Justice uses an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural approach to survey the dynamic and effective strategies of artists engaged in social justice work. The class investigates topics such as systemic violence, power, and privilege, alongside community-building, ethics, and identity. Analyzing artistic processes from multiple perspectives provides frameworks to understand project design and implementation.
