CT302 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Black Lungs, Idle No More
Document Summary
Non-reciprocal, dominance based relationship with the earth. It is the opposite of stewardship, involves taking but also taking care of that regeneration and future life to continue. Needs sacrifice zones like nauru, black lungs, poor people, colonies . Reduction of life into objects for the use of others- no value outside of this reduction. Feature of colonialism and early industrialization (especially coal) Ring of fire: aboriginal people starting to say no . Now seeing the reciprocity, call and response was merely delayed- no. Those inside, it is very hard to imagine (normalized for us) Confront the crisis truthfully is to confront ourselves.
