Class Notes
A science background is not required for this course.
More information about this course: Let's study together. What does science say about who we are? How does it script what bodies can mean? Is it possible to produce scientific knowledge under occupation? How has science featured in struggles for racial and sexual liberation? With our hands and minds, we will investigate the relationship between scientific discourse and global ideas of race and gender. This seminar will build literacy in different ways of scientific knowing, while inviting reflection on their social ramifications. Together, we will track how scientific codings of race and gender shape the ecological imagination, and we'll inquire into ongoing efforts to decolonize science.
