Symposium on Black Environmentalisms

Event time: 
Thursday, October 13, 2022 - 9:00am to Friday, October 14, 2022 - 6:00pm
Location: 
Sterling Library Lecture Hall See map
Event description: 

In the tradition of previous efforts to organize the diaspora around urgent questions besetting Black life, the Black Environmentalisms symposium convenes scholars, writers, artists, and practitioners grappling with Black environmental precarity across the diaspora. As we survive, subvert, and live against the grain of the Anthropocene, it is time we gather to compare notes. The symposium aims to recalibrate the theory and practice of environmental studies from a Black humanistic angle. In our usage, Black environmentalisms point to the multiple worldmaking projects anchored in Black cultures and epistemologies. The theme is a bold signpost to the ambitious paradigms, original research questions, and new lines of inquiry in the environmental humanities that we hope will emerge from this symposium. Centering Black communities as ground zero for equitable planetary changes and insightful epistemologies, the symposium contributes to the important project of putting African and African diaspora studies in mutually sustaining dialogue while enriching environmental studies.
