Section Info:
Decolonial Love and Indigenous Literature: This seminar will explore figurations of decolonial love in Indigenous writing. Within this body of literature, decolonial love may describe intimate bonds between people; it may involve the embracing of two-spirit or indigiqueer identify, or the claiming of kinship connections that defy the privatizations of intimacy and forms of social reproduction characterizing modern life. In the archive assembled for this seminar, decolonial love not only describes love between people but also love of place, lands, and other-than-human worlds. Primary texts will include work by, Marie Clements, Annie Ross, Billy-Ray Belcourt, Tenille Campbell, Gwen Benaway, Tanya Tagaq, and Leanne Simpson, Secondary readings will cover work by artists and scholars including Tanaya Winder, Kim Tallbear, Margaret Kovach, and Robin Wall Kimmerer.
