Convergence of Commoners Retreat
Beyond the Digital Illusion
Intersectional assemblage and power
How can concepts of intersectionality and assemblage help us recognise and navigate power dynamics and exclusion patterns in the struggle for social justice?
I will share a short provocation on how intersectionality and an assemblage lens might complement each other to deepen understanding of power. I'll use my recent work on youth mental health as an example. Power can be both concrete and organised, aiming to maintain control and authority, and diffuse, creative, and transformative aiming to challenge the status quo.
The provocation will be followed by group activities to prompt reflections on power as a dynamic and distributed force, recognising privilege and exclusions within and outside the commons.
