The event and installation are part of Dub Curriculum, an ongoing collaboration between Ultra-red and the Rurual Racism Project in rural communities. Drawing on the histories of conceptual art, the anti-racist legacy of dub music in Britain and practices of emancipatory literacy, Dub Curriculum asks participants to articulate their own vocabularies in relation to the discourse on race, resisting a convenient retreat to familiar terms like diversity and multi-culturalism. In this the project presents a barbed critique of the way such language, in its refusal of racism, contributes to the production of the very conditions for racist violence. Without an explicit articulation of a liberatory impulse, and in the name of pragmatism and efficiency, this bureaucratic discourse forecloses the possibility of fundamental social transformation and justice.

Dub Curriculum is a modest attempt to give form to the grammar of emergent struggle that might be produced in relation to and beyond this discourse.
