David Delgado Shorter: We Will Dance Our Truth
04/05/2010 7:00 pm
David Delgado Shorter, an associate professor in the Department of World Arts and Cultures at the University of California, presents We Will Dance Our Truth: Yaqui History in Yoeme Performances. Based on fifteen years of research among the Yaqui (Yoeme) Indians of Arizona and Mexico, Shorter examines controversial anthropologist Carlos Castaneda’s claim that the Yaqui have “a way of knowing” that is different from those in Western society. Through journal writing, personal narrative and interviews, Shorter reveals new meanings of the legend of the Talking Tree and the Testamento—a collection of narrative accounts of history and myth.
