Stefaniia SidorovaI was writing a short essay on the perks of #animism and how it can help western #epistemology and #epistemologicalFrameworks (if they wanted to listen) when I stumbled upon a wonderful article by #ZoeTodd — An Indigenous Feminist’s Take On The Ontological Turn: ‘Ontology’ Is Just Another Word For Colonialism. It is a fascinating read that helped me (as an ‘almost European’ Ukrainian) correct for my own #colonialGaze.
@JewishConversations @philosophy I enjoyed your thoughts. Thanks for writing it! I've got a comment on the usage of the word #epistemology when saying that everyone implicitly has it. Wouldn't it be better to use #epistemologicalFrameworks or #epistemicSystems in this context? I feel that epistemology IS already a philosophical theory and a kind of philosophical analysis, so it implies having some reflection on the part of the agent.
