This course introduces students to a wide range of methodologies for linking choreographic practice with the work of social justice and activism. Research will center issues of race, class, gender, sexuality and ability. Students will study artists whose creative output engages questions of politics, protest and social change through an expanded lens of the choreographic. Each student will create a final project that will challenge them to consider strategies of activism and social justice within their own work. Projects will be shared in an open showing.
