About Shades of Noir
In 2009 Shades of Noir (SoN) was created by Aisha Richards. SoN is an independent program that supports:
- Curriculum design
- Pedagogies of social justice through representation
- Cultural currency
- Accessible knowledge
Additionally, it has created physical safe spaces that offer opportunities to have critical and interdisciplinary discussions that confront some of the items that we see and do that can sometimes be challenging. This is a program that creates opportunities for marginalised groups and their need for safe spaces to articulate self-determination and liberate the struggles from oppressive structures both in education and society.
