Philippe 狈茅尘茅丑-狈辞尘产谤茅 will be presenting the talk:
"And there is reason to believe they are both lurking thereabout: Black Flight, Indigenous Land and Relational Imagination."
Philippe 狈茅尘茅丑-狈辞尘产谤茅 is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Geography, Planning and Environment at Concordia University. His research focuses on Black radical and decolonial possibilities, critical methodologies and Black ecologies and poetics. He recently completed his PhD in Sociology at Universit茅 de Montr茅al, and is the author of Seize temps noirs pour apprendre 脿 dire kuei (M茅moire d'encrier, 2022).
More about this talk: Informed by Saidiya Hartman鈥檚 critical fabulation, this talk follows Nemo and Cash, two fugitive slaves that we encounter in a fugitive slave advertisement published in the Gazette de Qu茅bec in 1779, as they escape on and with the Ndakinna, the ancestral territory of the w8banaki. By exceeding and negotiating the 鈥渃onstitutive limits of the archive鈥 (Hartman, 2008: 44), Philippe suggests a series of insights into what could have been a Black fugitive ecology on the Ndakinna, with all its relations, and what such Black fugitive ecology can teach us as part of a place-specific Black radical tradition.
