This paper is based on the authors PhD project, and is located amongst youth of African migrant descent in Western Australia. It was an arts-based project through which young people of African background were involved in theatrical events as a means of exploring issues relating to their bicultural socialization and identities. The paper discusses the methodological application of arts-based approaches and African-centred pedagogy in the exploration of African Cultural Memory as a relevant context for developing African cultural literacy as a pathway towards bicultural socialization and competence.
