Good Neighbours RPG – Role Playing Game With Cultural Workers Unite
Anti-Gentrification School is a school in process, with a grassroots curriculum built for and by cultural workers, neighbours, students and residents, to collectively learn, unlearn, and develop clear tactics and strategies to resist gentrification within our communities.
Anti Gentrification School
Anti-Gentrification School is een grassroots curriculum gebouwd voor en door cultureel werkers, buren, studenten en bewoners, om collectief te leren en duidelijke tactieken en strategieën te ontwikkelen om zich te verzetten tegen gentrificatie.
De Anti-Gentrification School is voortgekomen uit Cultural Workers Unite, een collectief dat intersectionele solidariteit stimuleert tussen alle precaire werkers van culturele instellingen in Rotterdam.
The Anti-Gentrification School grew from Cultural Workers Unite, a worker-led collective that fosters intersectional solidarity amongst all precarious workers in cultural institutions in Rotterdam.
Good Neighbours Role Playing Game
During this workshop you will learn how to deal with the entanglement between the interests of your individual identity and group identity in the collective struggle against gentrification. This is achieved through the use of role-playing and the engagement of real stories as an artistic method. What does it mean to be a good neighbour in your role as a cultural worker, atelier association, community space, or as an artist?
The scenarios are based on real stories previously collected by the Anti-Gentrification School. Workshop participants are asked to bring their own stories, concerns, questions and experiences, so that we can together map and enquire into our own role(s) and responsibilities in the process of gentrification.
Tijdens deze workshop leer je hoe je omgaat met de worsteling tussen belangen van je individuele identiteit en de groepsidentiteit in de gezamenlijke strijd tegen gentrificatie. Dit door het gebruik van rollenspellen en het inzetten van echte verhalen als artistieke methode. Wat betekent het om een goede buur te zijn in je rol als cultureel werker, atelier, gemeenschapsruimte, of als kunstenaar?
De scenario’s zijn gebaseerd op echte verhalen die eerder door Anti-Gentrification school zijn opgehaald. Deelnemers aan de workshop worden ook gevraagd zelf verhalen, zorgen, vragen en ervaringen mee te nemen om samen onze eigen rol en verantwoordelijkheden in het proces van gentrificatie te bevragen en in kaart te brengen.
