Story

This embodied piece captures both myDMP journey and research process. Thiscourse blew up my worldview. It brought tolight the unconscious biases I inherited, forged by the Colonial, Eurocentric, White,and Patriarchal institutions.
My poem ‘Resist (NOT)’ encapsulates thespirit of my research progression. From the start, I endured resistance and procrastination. I travelled down the misty research path where I faced challenges and isolation. I also celebrated moments of awakening. Once surrendering to the research process, I embraced the pride of my multicultural and intersectional embodied uniqueness.
