Our Other Body
by
Boaz Barkan
ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE
With brutality and humor, Boaz Barkan digs through a living body to reveal a new organ – the place where our racism resides. Our Other Body is a humorous and grotesque dissection of anti-Semitism and its effect on Jewish identity. A performance lecture about how we are all both victims and oppressors at the same time, in the same body. A journey through bodies and time to connect the effects of oppression and the roots of violence.
