Writer and educator Stan Chung explores the intersections of identity and culture. Using an indigenous framework the session explores a critical question: how do we find new connection and consciousness in a time of increasing cultural polarity?  How do we create new ceremonies  that resist the dominance of globalized mass culture?

Participants will examine improvisation and attempt to articulate those ceremonies that bridge cultures, deepen empathy, and transform both personal and institutional identity.

Stan Sae-Hoon Chung is a Korean-born writer, thinker, and educator. He is the author of Global Citizen: River of Love and Other Stories (2010). He is Vice President Academic and Research at Red River College.
