Queering and Decolonizing the Critique — Eleştiriyi kuirleştirmek ve sömürgelikten çıkarmak
📌 Op-ed 7 Ekim 2025
Archives, science and medicine are not inherently neutral.
Queering the critique invites us to think about #time, #science and #health in ways that are #decolonial and #nonlinear, transcend the present, and question the archives and the hegemonic uncritical accounts of #history in planetary health, technology, and #innovation.
Por qué lo de consumir mejor o más ético es un trampantojo neoliberal occidental aderezado de colonialismo por todos lados?
Aqui Ochy Curiel lo explica maravillosamente 👁️⤵️

Colonization and Rationality: Science as an Instrument of Domination, from Yesterday to Today
What if #colonization was the ultimate end that shapes #science, #technology, and #rationality?

Coloniality of Power: The Nation-State, Transnational Alliances, and the Trap of Mestizaje According to Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui
Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui reveals the internal double face of colonialism: a nation-state that marginalizes indigenous peoples and transnational alliances that perpetuate extractivism.

The hateful shit a lot of white people & some #BIPOC with unresolved internal #racism issues say to #activist #decolonial folks like me, about Palestine/Nepal/Sudan/Lebanon/Pakistan/etc is ignorant & often completely absurd, unbridled, #bigotry. It's like they chose to forget my family were #WarRefugees with family members who volunteered for #ResistanceArmy. That angers me. We are proud of our family members who sacrificed & joined the resistance.

The “Colonizer Colonized” by Aimé Césaire: A Meta-Biological Dynamic of Domination
For #Césaire, #colonization dehumanizes both the colonized and the colonizer: a spiral of #violence acting on #life, #bodies, and #minds.
