Tacoma Refugee Choir Part 2
Episode 12
Friday, 16 May, 2025
This second episode focuses on the Tacoma Refugee Choir and explores its mission, the philosophy of creating collaborative and shared spaces, placemaking, and a dialogue about the language of refugees and who gets to choose the language that defines the stories of who we are. Within decentered choral pedagogy, we examine notions of Empowering Song and the themes of risk and exploration within decentralized leadership. In relation to placemaking, we consider how the arts contribute to knitting together communities. Interwoven throughout this episode is a tapestry of Tacoma Refugee Choir performances and the voices of the singers reflecting on what this choir means to them.The Music & Peacebuilding Podcast is hosted by Kevin Shorner-Johnson at Elizabethtown College.
