#podcast Dive into a powerful conversation with the political scientist, historian, curator and anti-racist decolonial feminist Françoise Vergès as she unpacks the social and environmental politics of cleaning, waste and vital needs, questioning how water, air, food, housing, medicine and hygiene are constructed through systems of racial capitalism and coloniality.

@lopalasi furthermore, the tech politics of the USA administration have become overtly hostile towards the EU, weaponising their grip on US tech corps. The ICC case is clear. So we need to work on our digital in(ter)dependence, right?
Of course the analogies to 1) D Day and 2) independence movements in the Global South aren't at all perfect. I'd say we need to incorporate #decolonialism in all senses in the discourse, work on solidarity and reparations with our brothers and sisters in the South
“The matter is so complex. It’s not just that we, as Palestinians, do not have a clear view of the next steps: I tell you, even the countries in charge, including America, do not have clear steps,” said ...He told Drop Site that Palestinians recognize they cannot issue demands of Trump, but can impact the reality on the ground through their refusal to surrender or to leave.
Something we dont like about the talk is the neutral way in which it talks about the historical roles that plural beings and trans beings (especially transfem beings) filled in societies and cultures, roles which were largely of a spiritual nature.
As Talia Bhatt makes clear in her phenomenal text "The Third Sex", this role was often violently forced upon and the whitewashing of this vioelnce, that is being done today, often by cis academics who instead of a free world imagine a multipolar hierarchical world in which peripheries get codeified into their own violent states, with their own norms and standards of hierarchy born out of distinct cultural practices, is a danger we all need to be aware of.
Decolonialism cannot mean a building or rebuilding of other kind of hierarchies, if it is to be effective in the actual liberation of people. Decolonialism has to mean full autonomy for all colonized beings.
This isnt supposed to say that spirituality is inherently bad, there are so many liberatory ways of interacting with it, what is bad is forced gender roles.

Just saw a '"Death to the IDF" is counter revolutionary' post.
The piece makes the Palestinian resistance into Iran proxies and completely ignores how Israeli workers PROFIT from the Israeli subjugation of Palestinian workers, and how American workers BETRAYED Palestinian workers. (I've a YT on that one, and here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6zDvSacg1c)
The liberation of Palestine has always been a part of the class war, and people who share this now, after watching 20 months of Israeli workers gleefully genociding Palestinian workers and 77 years of colonisation of Palestinian workers by Israeli workers, show mostly their arm chair Whiteness ideas about liberation, IMNSHO.
FFS, just read the letter of Césaire on why he left the French Communist Party.
SORRY FOR THE EDITS, BUT THIS REALLY PISSES ME OFF.
