Autorenporträt
Chérie Rivers Ndaliko is an interdisciplinary scholar, activist, and Director of Research and Education at the Yole!Africa cultural center in the DRC. The focus of her research is art and social justice in warzones. With data gathered through empirical research, ethnography, and community based participatory methods, she advocates for a paradigm shift in the application of arts activism within humanitarian and charitable aid. Her analyses of contemporary sociopolitical artworks draw from the fields of African studies, ethnomusicology, film/media studies, and cultural theory. Samuel Mark Anderson is an ethnographer who researches expressive culture and its encounters with violence, politics, and public health in Sierra Leone and elsewhere in West Africa. His work has been funded by the Social Science Research Council, the Charlotte W. Newcombe Foundation, and the U.S. Fulbright Program.
