Description
Invited talk as part of Institute of Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) Being Human Festival 2023 programme.Event description:
The Hope and History of Allyship
What is an ally? Join us for an exploration of allyship and its role in historic, present and future decolonial projects.
From journalists and artists to Scottish intellectuals, we will uncover the importance – and limits – of shaping public consciousness through writing and movement, reclaiming hidden narratives of the colonised, and envisioning decolonised futures for everyone. This event unlocks history's profound lessons to showcase the impact of decolonial approaches, and highlights how institutions can foster allyship.
Expand your understanding and join the conversation.
Speakers include Dr Anna Girling, Dr Alok Oak and Dr Farah Saleh.
Presented by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) at the University of Edinburgh. This event is part of Being Human Festival, the UK’s national festival of the humanities, taking place 9–18 November 2023. Led by the School of Advanced Study, University of London, with generous support from Research England, in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the British Academy.
