Abstract

In this article we draw on storytelling and bricolage to reflect on critical accompaniment as relational praxis with cultural workers from the African diaspora inside/outside/in‐between the university‐community nexus in Australia. We write together weaving our voices as we re‐member our journey and our coming together fuelled by our shared desire, to tell our own stories on our terms; to contest virulent racisms and misrecognition of the African diaspora in media, academic, and political discourse; and to create spaces, settings, and narratives for identity, community and belonging. In reflecting on this journey we distil some insights on our efforts to enact just methods, our routes and roots of creating praxis inside/outside and with the university. We suggest that our relationships, forged through critical dialogue and examination of racism in settings that we intentionally create, is central to developing communality. Drawing from the rich history of African and diasporic archives, we also advocate for expanding ecologies of knowledge and practice and modalities for endarkened counter storytelling.
大学与社区关系中的自由梦想:作为反空间的关系实践
在这篇文章中,我们借鉴了讲故事和 "嬉戏"(bricolage)的方法,对批判性陪伴进行了反思,将其作为与澳大利亚大学-社区之间的关系实践。我们一起写作,在重新回忆我们的旅程和我们因共同的愿望而走到一起的过程中编织我们的声音,以我们的方式讲述我们自己的故事;与媒体、学术和政治话语中对散居各地的非洲人的恶毒种族主义和错误认识作斗争;为身份、社区和归属创造空间、环境和叙事。在对这一历程进行反思的过程中,我们提炼出了一些关于我们努力制定公正方法的见解,以及我们在大学内外和与大学共同创造实践的路线和根源。我们认为,在我们有意创造的环境中,通过批判性对话和对种族主义的审视建立起来的关系,是发展社区性的核心。借鉴非洲和散居地档案馆的丰富历史,我们还主张扩大知识和实践的生态,并提倡以标新立异的方式讲述反面故事。
