Pluto Reading Room Series - 'Learning Whiteness: Education and the Settler Colonial State'

  • The Sustainable Studio 7 Curran Rd Wales, CF10 5DF United Kingdom (map)

Arathi Sriprakash joins us to talk about 'Learning Whiteness: Education and the Settler Colonial State'.

Learning Whiteness examines the material conditions, knowledge politics and complex feelings that create and relay systems of racial domination. Focusing on Australia, the authors demonstrate how whiteness is fundamentally an educational project – taught within education institutions and through public discourse – in active service of the settler colonial state.

This conversation is set in the backdrop of the Welsh Government Publishing it's Anti Racist Plan for 2030 and the introduction of the new Curriculum which incorporates Black History. We will be discussing the difference this is going to make and journey Wales has it set itself on.
