Description
"Settler Colonial Apologia"
How is the past imagined to be settled? What are the conditions that make for this imagining, this fantasy or rather, demand of a new start point in time? In this lecture I consider the slice of this new-ness in recent history and the way “historical wrong doing” or “mistakes of the past” have been addressed by states and by individuals.
