520 | _aThe author theorizes the climatic, environmental, viral and social catastrophe present as an ancestral catastrophe through which indigenuous and colonized peoples have been suffering for centuries. In this way, the violence and philosophies the West relies on now threaten the West itself. Engaging with the work of Glissant, Deleuze and Guattari, Cesaire and Arendt, she highlights four axioms of existence- the entanglement of existence, the unequal distribution of power, the collapse of the event as essential to political thought, and the legacies of racial and colonial histories. | ||
