SUMMARY:Mapping Extraction
DESCRIPTION:This workshop maps extraction as a political and environmental process of the capitalocene\, tracing how projects framed as development or sustainability- by bringing together cases from India\, Palestine\, and Alaska- reorganize land and life through colonial or racial power. Rather than proposing reformist solutions\, the workshop opens space to revisit environmental possibility by questioning what kinds of futures these projects make possible or foreclose. \nThe core of the session will center on examining 3 case studies\, followed by a discussion guided by questions of the ontology of environmental “injustice” and the role of capital accumulation in shaping what counts as environmental “good.” Participants will collectively explore what a critical environmental politics might require us to refuse\, and what sort of knowledge could guide alternative environmental responses. \nAttendance is limited to 20 participants. Register on Zoom here. \nJenan Afaneh (B.A. University of British Columbia\, M.A. Birzeit University) is a writer\, researcher\, and educator. They are interested in tracing the multiple and shifting realities produced by colonialism\, across time\, space\, and social life.
