Abstract
This chapter discusses the possibilities of a deeper and more meaningful understanding of the issues through the creative thinking that is engendered in Social Dreaming. It presents a reference to the patterns of slavery which are patterned in minds and which give a propensity for enslavement. The chapter shows how minds are enslaved by limited conscious patterns of thought that Social Dreaming attempts to free through the sharing of dreams and associations. The 'inhibition' is a reference to the reluctance of each to delve deeply into the pain and psychological truth of an awful fact such as the slave trade. The 'exhibition' refers to both the museum exhibition and the possibility of 'exhibiting' what was once 'inhibited' in the sense. The chapter analyses some of the major images and thoughts that emerged from the Social Dreaming matrices themselves. It also discusses what new understandings the Social Dreaming workshops brought out and why.
