Abstract

Abstract:This article reflects on a pilot project that incorporates interactive theatre into the Black Equity in Alberta Rainforest (BEAR) initiative. The BEAR is an interdisciplinary action research project spearheaded by Ribbon Rouge Foundation in partnership with several researchers and graduate fellows to develop critical knowledge about the effects of anti-Black racism on health equity. A key methodology within the BEAR is the use of arts to engage community and foster social dialogue around African, Caribbean, and Black Albertans' lived experiences. The BEAR uses ArtSpaces to engage in events designed for community conversations with those who are often more marginalized in Alberta. To start this long-term program, we created a pilot theatre project, aimed at building a team of animators to foster community dialogue via interactive theatre. We focus on ethics in practice to consider what questions we should be asking ourselves at the start of, during, and after this collaborative project as we try to bridge the gap between intellectual understanding and practice. In doing so, we locate ourselves as artists who question our processes as we go. We argue that we learn about ethical relationships by doing our work.
从中间反思:一个致力于社会公平的互动剧场项目中的伦理
摘要:本文回顾了一个试点项目,该项目将互动剧院纳入阿尔伯塔省雨林黑人权益(BEAR)倡议。BEAR是一个跨学科的行动研究项目,由Ribbon Rouge基金会牵头,与几名研究人员和研究生合作,开发关于反黑人种族主义对健康公平影响的批判性知识。BEAR的一个关键方法是利用艺术与社区互动,促进围绕非洲、加勒比和阿尔伯塔黑人生活经历的社会对话。BEAR利用ArtSpaces参与旨在与阿尔伯塔省那些往往更边缘化的人进行社区对话的活动。为了启动这一长期计划,我们创建了一个试点剧院项目,旨在建立一支动画师团队,通过互动剧院促进社区对话。我们专注于实践中的道德,以考虑在这个合作项目开始、期间和之后,当我们试图弥合知识理解和实践之间的差距时,我们应该问自己什么问题。在这样做的过程中,我们把自己定位为艺术家,在我们前进的过程中质疑我们的过程。我们认为,我们通过工作来了解道德关系。
