Scholars’ Hub @ Home | Gender Creative Musicking: Naming and re-storying the world through collaborative songwriting with trans young people

Join us for Scholar’s Hub @ Home on Oct. 22 with Kael Reid, Assistant Professor, Children, Childhood and Youth Studies of the Department of Humanities at the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Professional Studies. Professor Reid will share findings from a project that utilized collaborative songwriting–a participatory arts-based method, which focuses on supported storytelling and creative musical expression. Centering transgender young people as experts of their own lives and agentic creators of musical culture, this project invited them to name, re-story and document their identities and worlds through songwriting, recording, and singing.
