Voices of Northeastern: Antonio Ocampo-Guzman
Antonio Ocampo-Guzman, associate professor and chair of the Department of Theatre, acknowledges the benefits that moving to the United States has granted him: living life “as an openly gay man,” adopting a child, making a living in theater. “And yet,” he says, “I have had to learn to discern that, just like Colombia, the United States is a land of opportunism, a land of oppression with an ugly colonial past built on genocide, on slavery, on indentured servitude, on racial injustice.”
