 ring the Mangue: Contaminated Landscapes and Politics of Trust in Recife\n
 \nCo-sponsored with the Institute for the Study of International Developme
 nt (ISID).\n\nAbstract: In Brazil’s precarious socio-political landscape\,
  where systemic violence\, racism\, and historical inequalities converge\,
  trust emerges as a fragile yet pivotal axis in the interactions between p
 olice and civilians. Drawing from over six years of ethnographic research 
 in Recife and Rio de Janeiro\, my book Untrusting: In Pursuit of Democrati
 c Policing in Brazil interrogates the intricate dynamics of trust and its 
 cultural\, gendered\, and racialized dimensions. Focusing on a chapter tha
 t examines Recife’s favelas and development projects in the urban mangrove
 s\, this talk will explore how these contaminated landscapes serve as an e
 xtension of the Black body. In a city divided into wet and dry\, contamina
 ted and pure\, Black and white\, the racialization of nature is a lingerin
 g legacy of tropical medicine and hygienization that continues to shape pu
 blic policy and policing. By positioning the mangroves as a site of mistru
 st and radical possibility\, this talk interrogates how the intertwined pr
 ocesses of environmental and racial marginalization impact sociality and p
 olicing. Ultimately\, untrusting becomes a lens to rethink security and de
 mocracy as sites of both exclusion and care.\n\n \n
