Fear of an other geography/
Eaves, LaToya
Fear of an other geography/ - sage, 2020. - vol 10, isue 1, 2020 : (34–36 p.).
Geography has failed to accommodate ‘indigenous ways of knowing’. To do so requires transforming and shifting power relations to account for the landscapes of white supremacy and imperialist practices that shape epistemological, pedagogical, and departmental climates. This commentary responds to Oswin’s call for mobilizing and building ‘an other geography’ by nodding toward the creation of the Black Geographies Specialty Group. In particular, it interweaves autoethnographic reflections on the body and provocations about the history of the discipline to illustrate another perspective on Oswin’s frustrations with stagnant, contained geographic practice.
