Dirge: Black and Indigenous Hemispheric Burial

The Western hemisphere is a haunted house built on the foundation of stolen land and stolen life. Considering the entanglement of the dispossession of Native sovereignty and African enslavement across deep time, in this talk Tao Leigh Goffe will present elements of a sound sculpture produced with collaborators. As a multimedia reckoning with the ongoing colonial present, Dirge explores Black and Indigenous burial rites, rituals, and futurism. 

**Due to COVID restrictions, only UCSD students and employees will be allowed to attend the class in person. All others must attend remotely via Zoom. Capacity is limited to first-come first-serve.
