#erasure

2025-12-26

#Erasure doesn’t persist on its own. It’s sustained. Sometimes deliberately. Often passively. Almost always through habits of thought and reflexes we inherit without examining. Those habits shape what we notice, what we dismiss, and what we consider normal.

For #Queer people, especially those of us already living on the margins, the consequences of not being counted are cumulative. Each omission tells a story about whose lives are legible and whose are not. Each gap in the record becomes another place where policy stalls, prevention fails, and harm repeats itself without interruption.

Uncovering #decolonial pedagogies for learning #agroecological transitions: comparative analysis of #SouthAmerica cases

Michelle Bonatti, et al, October 2025, published in Global Environmental Change.

Highlights:

• Decolonial pedagogies can facilitate agroecological transition processes.
• Pedagogical models facilitate agroecological transitions by integrating diverse epistemologies in agriculture practices.
• This study identifies three contextual learning narratives: Living, Resistance, and Hybrid Pedagogies.
• A main archetype has been discovered, known as the 'South pedagogies archetype'.
• The operational decolonial pedagogies framework shows how agroecological knowledge is created in the territory.

Conclusion:

"This study reflects on the strengths, nuances, and contextual factors shaping three distinct learning processes, offering insights into the effectiveness of diverse pedagogical approaches for agroecology that value the epistemologies of the South. The research recognizes that potential agroecological transitions face challenges from entrenched power structures and the historical #erasure of knowledge systems, calling for more than technical adjustments—rather a fundamental revaluing of diverse ways of knowing and being is essential. In this context, this research responds to the pressing need for a deeper understanding of pluriversal knowledge systems, epistemologies of the South, and learning approaches that have emerged organically within the Latin American context, where agroecological movements have deep and strong roots.

The growth of agroecology, also as an academic discipline, presents both opportunities and challenges. While it validates traditional agricultural practices within Western scientific frameworks, it risks perpetuating colonial knowledge hierarchies if not grounded in decolonial perspectives. Decolonial pedagogies are fundamental for accelerating agroecological transitions. As shown in this study, traditional communities in #Colombia and #Peru have preserved and evolved their #agroecology knowledge systems through generations of #CollectiveLearning, offering profound insights into #Sustainable #FoodProduction that transcend the limitations of Western scientific methodologies. In parallel, decolonial pedagogies in the Brazilian case were essential to promote agroecological transition that started recently in the last decades.

"The three contextual narratives that emerged from the South pedagogy archetype are intricate and interconnected, defying simplistic categorization. This study shows how the South pedagogy archetype serves as a model of resistance to poverty and social exclusion through agroecology. As research understanding deepens, there is a pressing need to explore Indigenous pedagogies to unveil additional valuable approaches to learning that lead to more inclusive educational models that resonate with diverse learners and address complex global challenges.

"By showcasing the rich knowledge systems and alternative learning structures present in these three cases, this research provides valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and practitioners. These findings can inform the co-creation of strategies that nurture agroecological systems and transitions, embrace the growing diversity of agroecology approaches, and navigate the complexities inherent in designing learning processes that value multiple ways of being."

And it doesn't hurt that we just saw Andy Bell live in Concert in Hollywood last weekend. 😁

Took the family to see Erasure's Andy Bell in Hollywood last night.

Poor kid's been dragged to OMD, Howard Jones & ABC so far...
...but his ol' man did also get the family box seats to the "AJR" concert for him, so he's got nothing to complain about. 😌

Just a little funny thing I just remembered. When I was a child my father travelled Eastern Europa selling machines that could measure the outer layer of fat on pigs... 😄
He would bring back home stamps for my collection. This is one of them. Seeing the illustration on an Erasure EP ten years later was surprising. 😲
Still got it but keep it with my "Crackers International" CD...

🇬🇧 Erasure "Crackers International – Part II" – 1988

A sparkling companion to the original release. It's brisk, melodic, and wrapped in that unmistakable synth-driven glow that turns even the coldest days luminous...
