Uncensored Dialogues: Indigenous x Immigrant Knowledge Keepers (Vancouver)

What happens when we stop talking about one another and start talking with one another?

Uncensored Dialogue is a Focus Hub Inc. project bringing Indigenous and immigrant/diaspora scholars, researchers, knowledge keepers, cultural practitioners, artists and community voices into conversation around identity, history, culture, racism, colonialism and belonging.

EXPERIENCE:

The event includes:

• Augmented Reality Gallery
• Live conversation
• Audience Q&A
• Museum of Vancouver Tour
• Reception and networking

This is also the soft launch of Focus Hub's augmented reality platform, part of a longer-term community-owned cultural preservation and archiving project.

Too often, communities are invited into the same room only to speak about one another.

Uncensored Dialogue asks what happens when we create the conditions to actually speak with one another.

That means making room for complexity.

For questions that don't have simple answers.

For histories that don't line up neatly.

For disagreement without disengagement.

And for the possibility that a conversation can change what we thought we understood.

Space is limited.

We look forward to having you with us.
