Possibilities and Perils of Decolonising the classroom in IMES: session 1
The on-going genocide in Gaza has brought into full view the thin veil between liberalism and fascism, resulting in the shrinking of institutional space to speak about decolonial praxis, in Palestine, the UK and elsewhere. This discussion considers what is at stake in calls towards decolonising the University today when such calls are met with overt and covert silencing and securitisation? What is new and old about this conversation and how do we hold ground in ways that remain true to the spirit of anti-colonial liberation movements?
