Course Description | This course offers the first DEI centered pedagogy and environment for the hundreds of students who come through the Department of Dance’s studios. This new course will provide DEiB-specific language, theory, and practice to a field centered around mind and body integration as well as innovation, community, and collaboration. Students craving this equity and integration will be given the opportunity to research, explore, create, share, and innovate with experts in the field as well as their peers- providing a platform to further their collaborative work and innovative dance performance writing, curating, and lectures. Leading question: How can we find solutions where we don’t fully understand the issues or extent of the disparity? We must first take score/inventory. This course is a collective attempt to better identify and understand (in theory and in practice) Diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging as they exist in the “S”(social) or ESG. ESG = environment, social governance. In this course we will primarily focus on DEIB or DEIA as a subset of The “S” of ESG meaning the social implications. Additionally, we will consider how the existing industry and field of dance across all sectors, private or public, can better champion, catalyze and construct operations at a systematic level, through integrating DEiB as an actualization of the “S” in ESG. Can the dance world be a leading force in efforts of equity and earth first initiatives? This course is open to all students.
