A conversation interrogating the meanings of “recovery” and “reopening”
In our varied responses to COVID-19, American (and global) society has undergone unprecedented transformations. What has changed? And, are such changes transitory or permanent?
These implicit questions will guide a conversation between our participants as they interrogate the meanings of “recovery” and “reopening”—terms often used to describe the transition from the early stages of the pandemic to some new, not-yet-defined stage.
What do these terms mean and how are they articulated to communicate social, cultural, and economic power? Is this a moment of opportunities and restructuring or a period of danger and retrenchment?
Transmedia and futurist artist, Stephanie Dinkins; marine biologist, policy expert, and writer, Ayana Elizabeth Johnson; and philanthropic innovator and program officer, Abdiel J. López will each present their views on the meanings of recovery/reopening with an aim towards clarifying this particular cultural moment and reimagining our collective futures.
