64 Anaurada Kawtha | Race and Gender. The importance of open communication.
In this episode of Things I Wish I'd Known, Rachael talks with Anaurada about the importance of intentional learning and nourishing marginalised communities without replicating colonial structures. We dive into our personal experiences with managing mental health, the challenges of discussing sensitive topics, breaking out of echo chambers, and uncovering unconscious bias. Additionally, we explore how colonialism impacted the world, specifically the dance world, and the importance of centring diverse stories and lineages when we look at race and gender. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on questioning biases and avoiding harmful attitudes when we have open communication.
