Decolonize Your Destiny
Episode #6- Decolonize Arts Education with guest Anya Dennis
Co-founder of the Heidelberg Arts Leadership Academy and multidisciplinary educator, Anya Dennis, shares the significance of arts education for Black and Brown youth and how the arts help to decolonize young minds.
Decolonize your Destiny asks guests to share how they decolonize their lives. Decolonization is the process of becoming self-sovereign and this is where the power lies. It is the untangling of the colonizer’s limitations placed on our minds and bodies by unlocking and remembering the indigenous wisdom that lives within us all. Although the colonization process in the United States began centuries ago, the tenants of colonization have been normalized and woven into the social, economic, cultural, and political fabric of our nation.
