Being doubly exposed

In the society nowaday discrimination is more and more often hidden behind the facade of the growing of xenophobic groups. These do not only strige "the exposed", rather the entire Swedish system takes damages of such growth.

In this workshop we are putting norms into question: Why does sexual orientation seem to be more important than idendity?

How can a doubly exposed person, for instance a homosexual immigrant, find his/her way in contemporay Sweden?

How is the concept of social integration a disadvantage for a positive development in society?

What is the role of the media?

Concluding our workshop you would have a different perspective on a problematic who is harming the Swedish system. You would have a new tool enabling you to criticise the generally accepted norms. Finally you would feel all the time that something is worth being improved in society.

Collaborators: Ola Karlman and Evelina Lindwall Hertz
