Whitemess: a performance



What does it mean to be white? Do our lives depend on the colour of our skin? Do our lives rely on the privilege that comes from segregating the other? This is a collaborative performance in which we explore two contexts: Heather, a white person from Johannesburg; and Beatriz, a “ladina” from Guatemala. “Ladina” is the term that designates a person as white with European descent, separate from indigenous people of Guatemala. In both contexts, we found a shared heritage of violent oppression and denial.


A performance for the 'Performance of Heritage' course, at Roehampton University, 2018
