While many non-Indigenous academic researchers have introduced the concept of reconciliation in their work, they have not adequately explored what it means for transnational immigrants and refugee communities to view reconciliation as a source of knowledge and understanding. How can assuming responsibility for reconciliation empower immigrant and refugee women communities? Why should immigrant and refugee communities embrace decolonial and anti-racist ways of knowing and acting to foster meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities? What does it entail to comprehend ‘decolonial and anti-racist learning and practice’-as a system of reciprocal social relations and ethical practices-as a framework for reconciliation?

Contesting Extinctions Decolonial and Regenerative Futures


Free Download Suzanne M. McCullagh, "Contesting Extinctions: Decolonial and Regenerative Futures "
English | ISBN: 1793652813 | 2021 | 184 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Contesting Extinctions: Decolonial and Regenerative Futures critically interrogates the discursive framing of extinctions and how they relate to the systems that bring about biocultural loss. The chapters in this multidisciplinary volume examine approaches to ecological and social extinction and resurgence from a variety of fields, including environmental studies, literary studies, political science, and philosophy. Grounding their scholarship in decolonial, Indigenous, and counter-hegemonic frameworks, the contributors advocate for shifting the discursive focus from ruin to regeneration.

Decolonial Feminism in Abya Yala Caribbean, Meso, and South American Contributions and Challenges


Free Download Yuderkys Espinosa-Miñoso, "Decolonial Feminism in Abya Yala: Caribbean, Meso, and South American Contributions and Challenges "
English | ISBN: 1538153114 | 2022 | 256 pages | EPUB, PDF | 1433 KB + 1439 KB
This is a collection of eleven chapters and an introduction that develop key arguments in decolonial feminism, particularly, the coloniality of gender, the critique of white and Eurocentric feminisms, the imbrication between gender, race, and colonialism, feminicides, and the coloniality of democracy and public institutions. The introduction addresses the path of decolonial feminism: from a new approach to understanding the relationship between gender as a category, race, and colonialism that combined U.S. Third World feminism and scholarship on coloniality and decoloniality to its exponential growth in the hands of activists and engaged scholars from Latin America and the Caribbean. Today, much of the literature on decolonial feminism in Latin America and the Caribbean remains unknown in the U.S. This anthology seeks to start remedying this problem with seven translations of work originally written in Spanish, and three essays originally written in English that address the fundamental concepts of decolonial feminism as well as its contributions to important contemporary political and intellectual debates.
