The John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design hosts a public lecture with Kholisile Dhliwayo on the tenets and methodology of making Black Diasporas Naarm-Melbourne and the forthcoming Black Diasporas Tkaronto-Toronto—projects celebrating cultural practices and knowledge systems that support the creation of places where Black communities can thrive.
In particular, the talk will outline how oral narrative, filmmaking and exhibition are both archival and aspirational—archival in their celebration of the spaces and places created by Black communities in Toronto and aspirational in the articulation of hopes and dreams and how these manifest in the built environment.
This event is part of the Daniels Faculty’s Winter 2024 Public Program.
