Interview: Sonya Lindfors on intersectionality, decolonization, and race in the art space

In today's episode of the Black History Unveiled podcast, I interview Cameroonian-Finnish choreographer and artistic director Sonya Lindfors. We spoke literally minutes after she had just directed and starred in her piece "One Drop." We talk about intersectionality, decolonization, audience reactions, how discussions on race and identity have evolved in the art space, plus much more. Enjoy!

Om Podcasten

Black History Unveiled: From the Continent to the Diaspora is a podcast by Swedish-Gambian journalist and author Amat Levin. It focuses on the part of world history that has received shockingly little attention. The podcast highlights gripping historical events, fascinating places, and exciting people that have been conspicuous by their absence in our history books.Some episodes are about things that happened hundreds, even thousands of years ago. Others take place more recently and touch on scenes many of us may have witnessed. The stories are inspiring, illuminating, startling, and sometimes upsetting.By listening, you'll learn why Black history has traditionally been suppressed, why it's essential to change that, and what learning about it can teach us about today.
