COMPLIT 207B: Emergent Thinking: Abolition and Climate Change (AFRICAAM 207, CSRE 207)

Course Description

In this course we radically reassess the ways certain life is awarded value, and others not. Against this way of thinking, we trace alternative ways of thinking and acting. Our topics include: abolitionist thinking; genocide and ecocide. We will consider various global spaces, with a particular focus on Palestine. We will use critical, theoretical, historical, and literary texts to approach these issues.
