Tabula Rasa - Voiceworks #128
'Zephyr Hopping's Tabula Rasa is an experimental subversion of institutional racism...'
'So, as students, do you believe that we are all born with innate knowledge, or do we acquire knowledge through our sensory experiences?’
— Tabula Rasa
Written in 2021, Tabula Rasa is about the experiences of institutional racism in academia. This hybrid fiction piece addresses the problems with publishing expecting a white lense on PoC writing, the double standards of education systems & the emotional labour required from minorities.
