Decolonization: theory, narrative, & praxis . ENGL 265DC

Since colonization began it has been resisted by visions of a world beyond the colonizer-colonized relationship. This course considers the long history of struggles against colonialism and empire through the lens of Indigenous and non-Western thought. We examine creative and theoretical texts that pose social, material, and epistemological questions raised by the possibility of an end to empire, violence, extraction, othering, and domination. We also consider the breadth of Indigenous and decolonial narrative, theory, and praxis from the personal to the political as we locate internal tensions, contradictions, synergies, and moments of generative possibility for literary production, activism, and theory.
