ANTH 7875 - Colonization:Remembering Silenced Histories

Institution:

California Institute of Integral Studies

Subject:

Description:

Postcolonialism struggles with the death of memory where its promises to the poor are least honored. Their actions for self-determination are policed to benefit the advantaged. The political commitments of the privileged to the marginalized are defiled in once-colonized regions. Engaging the legacies of internal and external colonization, how do we understand the crimes and contradictions of European imperialism since the 15th century How do we bear witness to the histories of colonization How do we connect to legacies of resistance and complicity to colonization, and to the imagination of freedom, to intervene effectively in the present
