Antonio C. Cuyler: 我认为,在当前全球性的危机背景下,特别是在艺术、文化和创意领域,实现创意正义至关重要。我撰写这本书的初衷源于五年前乔治·弗洛伊德被谋杀,这促使我开始为文化组织提供咨询和支持,以实现内部和外部的转型。我希望通过这本书,总结过去五年我为文化组织提供咨询和支持的经验,并反思这一事件对创意领域的影响。我觉得很不可思议的是,这件事发生时,美国由一个特定的人领导,而五年后,我们又回到了同样的位置,这让我们反思我们需要学习什么。此外,我不相信客观性,我认为人类本质上不是客观的;我更倾向于拥抱我们的主观性。拥抱我的主观经验以及我如何理解这种经验非常重要,同时也要认识到我所拥有的多重身份,包括特权和非特权身份。我所有的身份塑造了我的生活,我一直在理解它们。系统希望我以一种特定的方式运作,成为一个可以用来推进特定议程的象征性人物。这就是为什么我坚持自18岁以来就拥有的独立政治身份。我想分享我在与渴望有所作为的文化组织合作的经历,以及他们如何努力倾向于人道主义。
