Unsettle the Future
Re-Story, Research, & Reclaim Indigenous Sexualities & Relations
November 7-9, 2019
Symposium & Tipi Confessions Show
Join us at the University of Alberta for the RELAB launch symposium, Unsettle the Future: Re-Story, Research, & Reclaim Indigenous Sexualities & Relations.
The symposium will feature “research-creation” presentations. That is, research and creative works that are co-constituted, that infuse and inform one another. Such work is sometimes also referred to as “arts-based research.”
The symposium will open Thursday evening November 7, with a keynote lecture by Prof. Jason Edward Lewis of The Initiative for Indigenous Futures, followed by a day and a half of panels on Friday-Saturday, November 8-9. The symposium will feature on Friday evening a Tipi Confessions sexy storytelling and cabaret show.
Tipi Confessions is a live storytelling show on sex, sexuality, and gender, featuring performance and anonymous audience confessions. We highlight Indigenous, decolonial, political, humourous, creative, feminist, queer, and educational perspectives.
