The Tunnel of Oppression is a tour that will engage students in an immersive experience of scenes where participants will experience firsthand different forms of oppression through interactive acting, viewing monologues, and multimedia. Participants directly experience the following scenes of oppression: privilege, ability, body image, gender identity, socioeconomic status, xenophobia, religion, interpersonal violence, race, human trafficking, and mental health. All of the scenes have been written with the Chapel Hill students in mind and include stories directly contributed by members of the Carolina Community. Some scenes are direct monologues from student experiences on campus. At the completion of the Tunnel experience participants will go through an active 20 minute processing session where they will discuss the experience and learn how they can “rethink their role” in creating positive social change. All participants are encouraged to bring a non-perishable item to be donated.
