Ep 133: Diversity in Practice - This is who I am

In this special Diversity in Practice podcast, we are delighted to have Dr Sarah Meisch Lionetto, Director of Arts, British Council and Jeremy Goldstein, creator of The Truth to Power Café who shares with us more on a special digital theatre project called "This Is Who I Am".

"This Is Who I Am" an art project of autobiographic monologues by disabled artists from Singapore and the UK to raise awareness and foster access and inclusion. Jeremy Goldstein felt that stories by underrepresented disabled artists from Singapore in the United Kingdom might go unheard and unacknowledged. Therefore, this project aims to be a platform for the underrepresented to voice out and share their stories. As a result, the goals of this digital theater project are to promote awareness and generate understanding. In this way, we may perhaps transform conceptions of disability and build more inclusive cultures. So, while this work focuses on disability, its underlying values extend well beyond disability to all oppressed groups. And, as the project's title suggests, it invites us all to consider who we are, how we see, and how we view others.

Commissioned and presented by British Council Singapore

Created by Jeremy Goldstein (London Artists Projects)

Singapore Edition: Co-created, Developed and Directed by Jen Heyes (London Artists Projects)
