In the archive assembled for the course, decolonial love may describe intimate bonds between people; it may also involve the embracing of two-spirit or Indigiqueer identity, or the claiming of kinship connections that defy the privatization of intimacy and forms of social reproduction characterizing settler-colonial life. Decolonial love not only describes love between people but also love of place, lands, and more-than-human worlds. These expansions to Junot Diaz's original iteration of decolonial love will serve as a centerpiece of the seminar, which further asks what kind of reparative relationships is academic dialogue capable of building.
