Ghosts in the Family is a writing workshop co-hosted by Toni Brell and Amy Suo Wu. Stories play a role in affecting our own identities, kinships, and the communities and societies we're embedded within. This workshop will be centred around the role of storytelling and fiction from queer, feminist and diaspora perspectives alongside each other. Toni will be exploring ways to challenge and disrupt hegemonic narratives as potential gestures to create alternative realities, while Amy will approach fiction and storytelling as tools for immersion and empathy in the mending of intergenerational and diasporic divides. A variety of collective and individual writing methods will be practiced to conjure up and exorcise ghosts in the family. The workshop will take place at Sandberg Instituut with max. 10 participants.
