Decolonial lines of desire

Abstract

Abstract Drawing on the work of Sara Ahmed, Monique Wittig, Sylvia Wynter, Suzanne Césaire, and Leanne Betasamosake Simpson (Michi Saagiig), I offer an analysis of the relation between landscapes, bodies, desires, and academia. Of primary importance in developing these relations is to offer an account of how universities often replicate the harms of the past and the ways in which we might seek to upend these harms and create different spaces of learning.
