Dori Tunstall was the Dean of OCAD university and the first black Dean of a design school anywhere.
Last year she published her book, Decolonizing Design: A Cultural Justice Guidebook, and since leaving OCADU she has continued to advocate for a culturally just world based on respecting vulnerable and marginalized communities.
At the center of Dori’s approach and tireless efforts is the practice of liberatory joy for bodies and communities.
Challenging white privilege and white power structures with knowledge, experience, and love, she has created in partnership with CalArts Extended Studies 3 courses to empower leaders and organizations across industries to effectively work towards decolonization and a more just society.
When it comes to decolonization Dori reminds us that: If it doesn't hurt, then you're not doing it right.
