Abstract
‘Funmi Adewole Elliott, Alethia Antonia, Ramsay Burt, Tobi Poster-Su, Thea Stanton, and Negar Tahsili were invited to participate in a roundtable discussion on ‘Decolonisation and Solidarity’, chaired by Víctor Ladrón de Guevara, as part of the conference, Borderlines IX: Seeking Solidarity and Wonder Through Performance, which took place at De Montfort University in Leicester, UK, on 30 June and 1 July 2022. The provocations precede this article, and the video provocation can be accessed via STP online. What follows is the text of the discussion between participants, which was edited by Alissa Clarke with Harriet Curtis. The roundtable discussion considers decolonisation and solidarity in relation to topics including: the importance of self-reflexivity; contemplating new ideas, discourses and ways of being that sit outside existing dominant discourses and understandings; reductive representations; responsibilities, expectations and empty acts of decolonisation imposed by institutions; self-care; decolonisation as a process; undergroundness and the undercommons; creating and imagining new entry points for others; and challenging fetishization.
