EACH ONE TEACH ONE PARTY

EACH ONE TEACH ONE PARTY are all-day events to increase visibility in our country for African and Afro-Spanish culture, its richness, its diversity, its values, and what is brings to global culture worldwide.  Likewise, it is also a way to promote and display the results of the EACH ONE TEACH ONE sessions by MICROONDAS Social Laboratory developed by Pedagogías Invisibles at MATADERO every THURSDAY.   The EACH ONE TEACH ONE concept comes from the strategy eployed by illiterate slaves to become empowered through education.  Their community was forbidden access to education, so they “illegally” taught one another.  In the Microondas Social Laboratory, our aim has been to put this philosophy into practice as a dynamic source for community learning, additionally educating others in visibility (in an empowering cultural setting), in diversity (through diverse ways of educating and of conceptualizing learning), and using different outlooks on the human experience.   Each one Teach One sets out to demand visibility for the processes of the struggle by these people, and for the intellectual conceptions that Africans and those in diaspora make from their own process of integration.   The project consists of a gathering of different didactic elements, including music, art, film, history, and culture, in a collective formative process offering the visitor crucial information about the battle- both triumphs and defeats- waged by the black community, raising awareness about the political, emancipatory, and evolutionary processes that they have been carrying out for centuries, made evident in said cultural manifestation with said critical content.   Given the lack of visibility, cultural references, and political-social participation afforded the black community, we believe cultural, artistic, and social activities must be created to encourage this participation and to strengthen the ties between the community itself (intergenerationally and throught the political-participatory process), and other communities, facilitating citizen integración.
