Roundtable Description:

Transhemispheric Dialogues brings scholars, artists, curators, and activists together for a day of ‘long-clock’ roundtables exploring the possibilities of planetary feminisms for decolonial, ecological thinking, and creative praxis in more-than-human worlds. Planetary feminisms mobilize the deep interconnections between decoloniality, intersectionality, and eco-criticality to reimagine the human and (re-)make a world of many worlds. Planetary feminisms engage trans-scalar ecological thinking and creative praxis to challenge anthropo- and Eurocentric fictions of epistemic totality, storying pluriversal worlds, and worlding pluriversal stories. Planetary feminisms initiate experimental ecologies of knowing, imagining, and inhabiting, Earthwide and Otherwise, moving beyond mutual survival towards pluriversal and interdependent flourishing.
