    Crynodeb

    Maldonado-Torres (2007) in his work “On the coloniality of Being’ extends a call for recognition of how colonisation catastrophically limits the life chances of groups and their individual members. Central to the argument is the belief that individuals, and by extension their wider community members, are structurally positioned and their worth in communities only affirmed through social acts of giving and receiving. Maldonado-Torres’s work identifies this ‘reciprocity’ as a means by which marginalised people are recognised.

    Utilising Maldonado-Torres’ concepts, this workshop will offer a way to examine queer individual and intersectional relationships, so we can begin to question how our personal thinking and practices can either reinforce, or challenge, the structural barriers that reinforce colonisation. Through the use of social cartography (Casebeer, 2016) participants in this workshop will:
    * Engage with the work of Maldonado-Torres and queer decolonial theorists;
    * Create their own cartography of queer and intersectional relationships and reciprocity; and
    * Explore ways in which they might seek to alter these in an effort to redress social injustice and decolonise practice.
