How do Indigenous understa ndings of human-animal relations and human-land relations challenge existi ng systems of governance? And how are science and technology being used to limit or strengthen Native sovereignty under twenty-first century multicu lturalism?\n\n\n Professor Kim TallBear's lecture\, specifically\, will exa mine the caretaking of relations embodied in recent social movements led b y women\, two-spirit\, and queer people: #IdleNoMore\, #NoDAPL\, and #Blac kLivesMatter. In this moment of crisis—new to some but ongoing for many—is an opportunity to unsettle the American Dream. Turning our redemptive att ention away from empire to focus on caretaking relations\, including other -than-human kin\, the land\, and water\, defies a foundational settler-col onial narrative—the nature/culture binary that puts humans atop a hierarch y of life. This talk proposes instead another productive script.\n\nTo be followed by a round table discussion with Jennifer Brown (Pacific Lutheran University)\, Rico Kleinstein Chenyek (University of Illinois at Urbana-C hampaign)\, and Kirsten Simmons (University of Chicago).\n DTSTART:20180202T213000Z DTEND:20180202T233000Z SUMMARY:Kim TallBear (University of Alberta): 'Biopolitics and Beyond: New Directions in Indigenous Studies' URL:/history/channels/event/kim-tallbear-university-al berta-biopolitics-and-beyond-new-directions-indigenous-studies-283861 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
