Aim of workshop
Our aim in the critical empowerment workshop is to simply find a safe space to critically articulate and learn together, to empower each other and demonstrate the possibilities of real solidarities in workplaces, activist groups and the society at large. Our aim is to continue raising awareness and address the historical systemic racial exclusion of minorities in the Western media and other workplaces, while also improving each other’s abilities to be critical. The workshops focus would be on Radio production, articulating and addressing issues of systematic racism and the inequalities it creates at workplaces for minorities. We would share our experiences and a few solutions to these versus issues.
