Post/Human Rights, Indigeneity and Environmental Justice

Global Arts + Humanities Society of Fellows, 2020-2021 Cross-disciplinary Digital Dialogues
February 1, 2021
3:30 pm - 5:00 pm
Online

Dialogue four considers the challenges that the Anthropocene epoch poses to human and non-human life and the potential of cultural practices and newly imagined ethical concepts for addressing these challenges. Panelists discuss how aesthetic and cultural practices generate attachments to the places we inhabit, and how posthuman renderings, such as augmented reality applications, encourage embodied experiences that connect humans empathetically with the biodiversity of seen and unseen worlds. Additionally, the panel will address questions of cultural inheritance, environmental justice, and the dangers of living under carceral rule.
