Susan Parenti

Susan Parenti is a composer and an organizer of the School for Designing a Society (409 N. Race, Urbana). Ms. Parenti would like to discuss with others the following: 1. How to start and maintain a school. What does it take, can YOU do it, too? 2. What is the School for Designing a Society? 3. The Politics of Care - is care in conflict with our need for freedom? 4. Performance in everyday life - what if we were to think of ourselves as performers and our everyday actions as performances? 5. Social wealth versus money, how lack of money can not carry weight in regards to projects. 6. Language as a significant dynamic in interactions. These are topics that are discussed and performed in the School for Designing a Society.
