Fighting Fire with Water - a way to navigate organised hate webinar

Fighting Fire with Water - a way to navigate organised hate
4:00pm Sunday 24 March
Kaikōrero:
Prof Mohan Dutta, Metiria Stanton Turei
Ringa hāpai:
Dr Christine Elers
As a public scholar doing theory work at the intersections of activism, community and social justice, I have experienced and negotiated diverse registers and forms of hate. From white supremacist attacks to Zionist propaganda campaigns to Hindutva mobilizations targeting my scholarship, infrastructures of hate targeting my academic freedom are held by a political economy deeply embedded in the intertwined forces of neoliberal capitalism and colonialism. In this conversation, I will draw upon the embodied experiences of challenging hate to trace strategies for building local-global solidarities anchored in te Tiriti justice and anti-racist theorizing.
Out of respect for our kaikōrero and ringa hāpai, we have not translated karakia, pepeha from Te Reo Māori to English.
This webinar was part of the Te Tiriti-based Futures + Anti-racism open access, online conference, 16-25 March 2024. #TBF2024 www.tiritibasedfutures.info
