Show Notes

In this episode Emma Grillo Kajava discusses the politics of time in antiracist and anticolonial movements, exploring how activists reinterpret the past, present, and future to challenge dominant narratives that frame racism as a problem of the past. Her work draws on activist knowledge and a “scavenging” methodology that engages with movement archives, cultural production, and lived experience to understand how these movements imagine alternative futures and inform both research and political practice.
