Futures present:

KIM TALLBEAR

Indigenous sexualities, technoscience, and the environment


6:30 pm
Friday, October 14th, 2017

Free and open to the public!

Kim TallBear is an enrolled member of the Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate in
South Dakota. She is also descended from the Cheyenne & Arapaho
Tribes of Oklahoma. TallBear originally trained to become a community
and environmental planner at the University of Massachusetts, Boston
and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Urban
Studies and Planning (DUSP). She completed in 2005 a Ph.D. at the
University of California, Santa Cruz in History of Consciousness. More
broadly, she is interested in the historical and ongoing roles of
science and technology (technoscience) in the colonization of
indigenous peoples and others. Yet because tribes and other indigenous
peoples insist on their status as sovereigns, she is also interested
in the increasing role of technoscience in indigenous governance. What
are the challenges for indigenous peoples related to science and
technology, and what types of innovative work and thinking occur at
the interface of technoscience and indigenous governance? Into her
research she brings collaborations, and teaching indigenous,
postcolonial, and feminist science studies analyses that enable not
only critique but generative thinking about the possibilities for
democratizing science and technology.

Presented as part of the Future Imaginary Lecture Series:

defender, researcher and proud grandmother based in Khartoum, Sudan.
